Frank DeLorenzo of "Frank's Mandolin Kitchen." Frank has a good following here and 1,600 subscribers online. He plays with more feeling than many of the "greats."

This is the fourth song of my Goblin Folk project, where I use electric & acoustic mandolin family instruments to create music that feral woodland humanoids would enjoy. It's a take on Andante Lute,...

Thanks Sue and Chuck! Here's my 1st attempt to cover anything by John Reischman. I mean, the man is a monster. I'd give most anything to be that cool behind the controls... Thanks for the Listen!!...
