    Re: Sad news

    So sad to hear this news. Jesse was one of my heroes, a friend and mentor. Another giant of the mandolin has left us. Rest in peace, Jesse.

    Re: Sad news

    Sad news. And yes, a very nice fellow indeed.

    Re: Seven Come Eleven - CGP with Dawg

    So far the comments have been quite interesting to me.

    Frankly, I find Tommy's jazz playing to be more enjoyable than Grisman's. Grisman is a giant of the mandolin and one of the most important...

    Hey I don’t have tab but here’s a nice workshop where Joe K Walsh teaches it. Definitely some tab out there. It’s a pretty simple melody.
