A song that was certainly among my first learned and always brings me home.
Very nice Frankdolin!

This is one of my favorite love songs, done here for my lovely wife. " If " by Bread.
That was great Frank. Played it with great sensitivity and feeling.
Hi, all. New to the group, and new to the mandolin. I just purchased an Eastman MDO-305 Octave Mandolin last week, and here's my first attempt at posting a tune (although I didn't quite stick the landing). This is a simple arrangement of Harvest Home. I usually play this fingerstyle on the guitar in an open tuning, so transitioning to flatpicking for the OM is a new experience for me. Loving the Eastman, by the way.
Here is my arrangement of In the Bleak Midwinter for Mandolin and Guitar Trio. I have attached the arrangemet.

Please be gentle ....
the song is by Chuck Berry, but I took an arrangement by Ry Cooder and converted it to Mandolin...
Hope you don't hate it too much...

I haven't played this song since I was kid ,probably over 50 years. I found a nice backing track on YT and had a blast revisiting, knowing how much has changed since then. Anyway... Played on a Morris flattie with terrible strings. Which are gonna stay that way for now since it's NMD. Waiting impatiently for Fed-Ex. Then 24 HOURS more, Too Cold !
NMD? What are you expecting?
It is cold, isn't it?
Great original song, Andy, and a fine trio of musicians. Super octave as well!
