    Default Mike Compton- Hangin’ Dog

    Cool version of the tune from Bob Minner’s (EXCELLENT) new Norman Blake tribute album: From Sulpher Springs to Rising Fawn.

    I haven’t heard Mike play this one before and it’s also cool to hear the Gil Model 4 in action.

    Tell me about it. That lead up to the sweep around the 46 second mark and again at around 2:07 really pricked up my ears. Had me reaching for my mandolin to try to figure it out. Very cool.

    I just got the CD a couple days ago. Some lovely music and performances on it. Here's the other Nancy Blake tune (just Bob Minner on this one):

    Here's a podcast (fretboard journal link!) with Bob Minner describing a lot of the background that went into this CD.

    Oh man, so cool to hear Mike playing that, it’s probably my favorite Nancy Blake tune.
