    I submitted tab for the tune to the Cafe today. I had tabbed in std tuning years ago, based on Jeff Todd Titon's AEAE fiddle transcription in his Old Time Kentucky Fiddle Tunes book.

    Thanks to Jason for the tribute to John McGann; IMHO there's not enough of that, since he was a major contributor to developing roots music at Berklee. However, John's position at Berklee was Associate Professor of Strings.

    What an interesting take on an old session favourite. Thanks for posting this Andrew and posing us sessioners some technical challenges.

    Welcome, Andrew! I echo the comment above. Always a great way to start the day on the Cafe seeing these new videos.

    Beautifully played. Stickers look great, too.

    Great arrangement, David! Love the new case stickers.

    Exceptionally nice! I really felt the original coming through, while at the same time getting equal ownership from the arranger and the instrument. You made it a great mando tune, but I can still hear George. Way to go! Thanks, Tim.

    That's about the most lovely solo Beatles arrangement I've ever heard. Staggeringly gorgeous.

    Great song, great arrangement!

    Wonderful - especially the harmonics, and I love the way you manage to get sunbeams to shine out of your mandolin!
