Excellent!  I love Chris Thile's playing.

Hard to go wrong with Sarah J. either.  :)

Interesting, they chose key of G for Canaan's Land... I've done it a thousand times, (maybe more) always in either E or F for mandolin. I wonder if either voices or the bouzouki/octave mandolin was the deciding factor? That's a cool sound.

Daniel Johnston passed away 4 days ago...  eclectic is a mild adjective. My introduction to him was a song called Summer Time, we ate some mushrooms in a cabin deep in the Chequamegon Forest.  A 'sober' friend busted out a boom box and played this song off of a cassette (it was quite awhile back in time).   





Most notable for me was to find out later in life that Daniel was the writer of Walking the Cow.

That's a great version of Schizoid Man; thanks!  Enjoy the concert.

These two play well together...



And their singing together approaches the Porter & Dolly/Gram & Emmylou/Marty & Grace level!

so many simple layers that add up to a really nice tune.

He was 'eclectic'.  :o
There is a good biography about him;

Emily King is a gem!

Smoooooth.

Listening to it made me think of a dog named Georgia that ran away and the emptiness that rests with a never returning moment...

Just last night my 17 yo daughter turned me on to Daniel Johnston. He has quite a story and suffered terrible mental illness.

Tim O'Brien, and a tongue-twister of a tune on a request list for an upcoming gig this weekend. I'm told we've done this tune before, and somehow had just forgotten about it. It was fun relearning.

That Tim O'Brien song was great, thanks!  :)
