Re: Who was Bickford....
So, while I'm not often finding myself playing classical style mandolin, in this thread I learned about the Bickford's, some pretty New Age type individuals from well over a century ago, learned some scandalous rumors about said proto-New Agers, learned about Djangobooks.com and a link for a downloadable and very straight-forward mandolin method book, and I learned more about obscure cleff notation than I had ever realized was out there before. I love this website!
