@aidan,
what a great version, and that electric mandolin(I think it's a Rickenbacker), I want one!

@panzade,
Panzade - if I ever learn how to play another instrument - that will be the one. I love it.

@aidan,
I hack on mine and admire guys like Mike Marshall and Chris Thile. Time for a tune, shall we?

@panzade,
A newly discovered favorite - I can't believe I never ran across this guy before- he's the MAN (and what a BAND!!!)

@aidan,
One of my favorite melodies. I found an old friend on youtube - he did this song on the hammered dulcimer and I fell in love with it a long time ago. He has two songs on youtube - but not this one yet - although I left a comment on his facebook page and asked him to post this song on youtube, so maybe he will-but you can get the idea of the melody from this version:
Lord Inchiquin

@panzade,
I hope he posts his hammered dulcimer version on youtube or somewhere. I have it on vinyl. He graduated a few years before me, and opened a shop in Black Mountain, North Carolina where he made dulcimers. He made an album in 1981 with Lord Inchiquin played on the hammer dulcimer.
I've loved it ever since then.

@panzade,
I do like it - is Coup de Grass your band? And you play bass, right?

I think Old Howard really highlights your skills- (I don't know how to post it, because it's not youtube - but people should listen to it).

@panzade,
Really? I like the vocals, fiddle and the bass line.
Why don't you like it? It sounds like it'd be fun to play as a bass player.

@aidan,
dunno...it just didn't come out as good as the rest of the album, in my opinion.
Soldier's Joy by the way was a live recording

@panzade,
I think what I like about Old Howard is the harmonies. I really like the vocals - who does lead?
I like the name of your band and the name of the album. I'll work on acquiring a copy.

You'll have your work cut out . There's not many copies out there anymore.

@aidan,
another all time favorite - although I'm a little embarrassed to admit how much I love this song - I heard it in a restaurant last night and I started crying - the infamous Michael Jackson:
