Am a great fan of the Seldom Scene - & love their style of 'Newgrass'
In fact, when John Duffy - mandolin player died - in 1992 - I first started listening to their music - all of it!

We have a great group in Nova Scotia - called Grassfire Band - who have a similar style to Seldom Scene. Their mandolin payer is Dale Wood - who reminds me of John Duffy.
Sadly they no longer play - but they were fun when they were around at all our local venues. Have a listen!

Found this one today. He's outstanding as usual. Never any less.

ANother all-time favorite - Josh WHite singing
'WHile the blood runs warm in your veins'
Real blues-y as only he can sing it - & some great guitar work - keeping in mind it was recorded in 1935.



It was rerecorded by Aretha Franklin in 1956 when she was only 14

Outstanding. Thanks, ponhook!!

This was one of the first fingerstyle songs I learned on guitar. But here's a new take by the man himself, flatpicked. It's really wonderful. I think it's drop D tuning. He's just as amazing as ever.

RE - Steve Winwood - singing 'Can't find my way home'
Really great guitar work! - started reading up on 'drop D' tuning - pretty interesting -although I don't fully understand it.

Has anyone tried it? what is the advantage?
I gather that you can play a number of power chords this way - & also you can simply barre to form other chords. You can see him working the bass strings - are those power chords? - but I don't see him forming any barre chords. In fact -if one looks closely at the video - he appears to be forming a basic D chord.

Caught my interest -Anybody out there up on D tuning?
