    Default Music listening recommendations

    I’m looking for recommendations for mando-centric music. Any style is good for me.

    This recent thread should give you a start:

    Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
    "I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."
    Lomax, Alan, The Land where The Blues Began, NY: Pantheon, 1993, p.14.

    Not on the above mentioned thread, but anything by Butch Baldasarri (sic)
    Thanks

    Several mandolins of varying quality-any one of which deserves a better player than I am.......

    I'd guess you already have it, but if not, Skaggs and Rice may be the finest bluegrass duets ever recorded. Ricky's phrasing, timing, tone, everything, is stellar. And then there's Tony...
