    Roll On Buddy

    Definitely not a bluegrass version - last solo is electric mandolin.

    Roving on a Winter's Night

    First recorded by Doc Watson. I was reminded of the song by Hannah Sanders' and Ben Savage's great recent version.

  6. Re: D'Addario Micro Headstock vs Micro Clip Free tuners

    I prefer a big honkin TC Unitune. Bought a mandolin that came in a case covered with stickers - fine by me. I also dress funny.

    Re: Rearranging strings on a mandolin?

    I often play A as G 2240 E, barring the G and D strings with 1st finger. Am is 2230. If the E string rings it's fine, since it's part of the chord.

    Re: Franks' Mandolin Kitchen

    I don't think I've heard a minor-key Hank tune before. It reminds a bit of Dylan's Man in the Long Black Coat.

    Rob-

    St. Basil's Hymn

    He had to grow into both, it appears. In Memoriam was constructed bareface, apparently. (Probably not Ulysses, though.)

    Well, honestly, was the hat crucial to writing In Memoriam, or was it the facial hair?
