    Demetrius - I've often wondered just how many excellent recordings by equally excellent mandolin players fly under the radar !.
    OK - it's not Bluegrass,but there are many players on here who enjoy many genres of mandolin playing - thanks for the ''heads up'' on this one !,

    Listen to the old records on youtube "if ya don't have em" some Japanese fan has thousands man! Live stuff too! Listen to II Generation and Cliff Waldron and the New Shades of Grass, they have my Uncle Gene Johnson on them playing his Loar when he was young and yeh man, great stuff!

    As a long-time record collector I can echo Bluegrasser's comments above in saying that throughout Europe and and the far east there are often MANY albums released that never see the light of day in the U.S. This is especially true of live recordings and reissues of long out-of-print releases - but it often includes brand new recordings that record companies simply thought had no significant market in America. In decades past this presented a significant problem for hardcore collectors, but now, with the advent of the Internet, these releases are now easily within reach . . . if you make the effort to look for them.

    I love this! I played all the samples and just fell in love with these duets. My recent practices have included easy classical pieces just to get me going and I am more and more drawn to these arrangements. Thank you.
