Oy! Yank Rachell meets Roosevelt Sykes. This is so bizarrely great that i am at a loss to complement you. Have you considered doing "Big Railroad Blues" by Ashley Thompson and the Gus Cannon Jog Stompers on mandolin lately?
i was inspired to restring and restore my mandolele back to a playable condition after seeing this. thanks, daddy. you are a kick up the backside for all us lazy blues musicians. keep being the best!!! 'deef' john holler
Wow. Until today I never thought it possible to play the mandolin as a solo instrument. It sure is a deep sounding one though. Great sound. 5*s for sure.
You really did throw the kitchen sink at that one. VERY NICE.

what's the mandolin's afination? E,A,D,G like a guitar?
inputbass 2 years ago
From low to high, it is G, D, A, E - exactly like a violin, or like the bottom four strings of a guitar, reversed. I think that's right....

of course, a mandolin is a good blues instrument. Ask Ry Cooder or Rich Delgrosso. Where is the time of Yank Rachell or Charlie Mc' Coy.

Love that fat tone and the strong and simple camera framing. The loosey riffing style doesn't hurt a bit either.
