Here's a couple tunes on my new Collings MT2. Let me just say this mandolin IS everything it's said to be. Just a joy!
What a great sound, Frank. You must be delighted with the Collins.
I really liked your version of The Lover's Waltz with the chordal arrangement and the key change, then the accompanied rendition of Jerusalem Ridge. Two fine videos.

Sounds great Frank! That MT2 has some nice sparkle but sounds good when you dig in too. Seems versatile and looks great. A good partner for your Pava. Can those two end MAS? Always the question

Bruce (bbcee on the cafe and SAW group) got in touch with me about doing a collaboration on this tune from the "Gallop to Georgia" CD by Compton and Blake. It's an old tune played by Narmour and Smith and other old time ensembles. The tune has a long form of AABABC. It's in the key of C so Bruce learned it on mandola and I'm playing the mandolin part (doing my best Compton imitation) the first time through while Bruce lays down some excellent rhythm on the mandola. Then he takes the melody and I back him up. We both had a lot of fun putting this together! I used some time-lapse videos I've gotten into shooting lately even though they have nothing to do with Captain George or his money. Bruce and I hope you enjoy our collaboration.

I'm just a mediocre player at best but here's a little tune I came up with on acoustic...I had been listening to Debussy and stole the chord after minor intro from the old tune Greensleeves...just simple foolin around
after I bought my mandolin Little Rock Getaway was a tune I wanted to learn but I didn't even know it on guitar. I'm an ear player and it was extremely difficult for me to find a version that I could hear and remember the melody. It took me quiet a bit to put this slowed down melody together. Yhe A section is pretty accurate, the B section isn't exactly right but it was what I was hearing...I still haven't tried to figure it out on my mandolin but I'll get around to it someday.

CB: very nice guitar playing. You've got a great baritone voice too. You sound like Trace Adkins.
well tks Lucas, I'm probably older than that Trace guy so he sounds like me ha...kinda like Ramblin Jack said when the interviewer asked him what he thought about people saying he sounded like Bob Dylan, Ramblin Jack was about 40 at the time, Dylan was a young kid...Ramblin Jack said "well that's ok I've been sounding like him my whole life" haha now who sounded like who

Very distinctive sound you are creating, Jo. Fine playing.
