Going way back to week #7 on this one. Wanted to play my new mandolin on tune today during lunch break and the Big Sciota was twirling around in my big noggin'. Please overlook the flubs at the end. I got my timing off kilter a tad.
What a nice sounding mandolin Tim. It's got that beautiful F4 sound. Nice job on Big Sciota also. I've been banging away at my list and Big Sciota has worked it's way to the top. Soon. Gary
Oops again! I actually didn’t know it was #7 and it’s been raining all day and the cat wanted to go in and out of the apartment 10 times an hour -just to check if it’s still raining, I guess. And only 12 tunes left to nail. Hope you guys are doing well, more tunes to keep the blues away! https://youtu.be/Rqn_xNV49pI -anyone got an easy blues tune to learn?
Excellent Simon ! I have never played this tune (yet)..you are going to make it to 100 - I can't wait...
Nice and easy to listen to, Simon. And visible proof at last that you didn't saw off the neck below that capo...
This looked familiar so I went back and see I did a version in 2009. Sheesh. Tempus fugit.
Well played, both. Interesting differences in the sounds you each create for this tune. You give the tune a very different feel when comparing the octave and mandolin versions, and your individual picking styles.
Well done Mike, nice relaxed style! I was thinking about this yesterday John, its strange but I dont feel I can change my style, to add double stops for example till Ive finished my birthday quest, and can have a sort of change in rhythm. I thought maybe learn a Blues tune.
Two great versions, Simon and Mike.
And next up on our REVISTED tunes, another classic.... Big Sciota. Coincidentally, exactly 11 years from when we did it on week #7 originally!
