[DavidLessem]

Great frailing. A pleasure to listen to!

[Kronedaddy]

That one sounds like Red Haired Boy, great playin.

reckon ol' Jasper's heard it all before! thats some fine pickin'

[slimpickensrx]

great cat! I love how cats aren't bother by instruments, except drums, I would think a banjo or a guitar would distract them but they'll sleep right through if they are tired enough

[spinzorelli]

Yup, drums AND Harmonicas! Try playing a harmonica (especially lower notes)...it freaks cats out big style!!! They hate it. Every cat I've had hates that sound.....

[slimpickensrx]

oh yeah, forgot about harmonicas, my friends cat will come and headbutt you until you stop playing it

[Deepsky1A1B]

I like your cat

[Sonofsoil]

Very good playing! I just copied your version of abe's retreat, and now I'm playing it too. very inspiring. thanks.

[spinzorelli]

Cool. The way I play Abe's is based on Dwight Diller's version....the clawhammer master! Will you post a clip of yourself playing it?

[psalvustube]

cool! Sawmill tuning with capo in II fret?

... an ancient sicilian song says "like the blacksmiths cat, that falls asleep to the sound of the hammer..." ;-)

[spinzorelli]

These are actually in Standard G tuning (with capo II). A lot of players do play these tunes in Sawmill though. Love the blacksmith quote....very cool

[banjoden]
