Just think about the mechanics and logistics involved with just tuning up the blamed thing before a gig.

Puts me to mind of an old folkie joke:

How long does it take to tune a hammered dulcimer?

Nobody knows........

I'm absolutely certain Tim was on a Norman Blake binge when he wrote this one.

This is really good; very nice composition and a great sound from this combination of instruments.

I was up in my shop last night, thinking about Tony Rice... been gone two years Christmas Day. And Ian Tyson just left us. And how it's all connected.

A beautiful Dark Star

The Dick Cavett show the day after Woodstock.   Performances by Jefferson Airplane, Joni Mitchell, Steven Stills, and David Crosby.   And oh, the 1969 commercials!  Is Jorma sporting the first man bun?

Bill, tgo

Happy birthday to 2 musicians I love:  amazing songwriter Robert Earl Keen is 67 today:


And Bangles lead guitarist Vicki Peterson is 65 (OK, admittedly I love her largely for this video - but she can play......):

Mr. Keen once said that his greatest asset as a songwriter is that his stuff sounds better with anybody but him singing it; he obviously never heard me do any of the ones I do...........

A couple of my old friends; Jim Post live, with Mick Scott (whom, alas, I eulogized almost 6 years ago) on lead guitar:

And a quick edit to say I just found out we lost Jim about 3 months ago.  Crap.

My brother sent me this from a couple months ago.  Nice tip of the hat to a guy who truly was "one of one".

Dan Tyminski is touring the off-season with the resonator guitarist in his band... pulling some cool old tunes out here and there. This Seldom Scene classic, as redone by Tony Rice lit a fire under the collective asses of my generation. Danny and Gaven kill it.
