@ukulelecomics Mandolin players wear overalls (or at least jeans and a T shirt) like C & W singers wear cowboy hats, metal artists' arms are covered with tattoos, hip hoppers wear long shirts and baggy pants.
Hey Jim, Good job. I have a request, Going to California - Led Zepplin. (Mostly 'cause I want to learn it and figure I could get some ques from a vid from you)
I was just cruising through Mission Impossible vids and came across yours....WOW! Great job...love blue grass stuff and you kicked this one!! Loads of fun!!
goddamn jim your videos never cease to inspire n amaze me I love all your stuff, my take on the mandolin is different though im more a straight up rocker never been a bluegrass guy but i love the mandolin and try to go my own way with it invent my own flavour but damn dude i would kill for your skills
Hah! Thanks for bringing a smile to may face, more than once in the last few minutes, man. If you can, it would be great if you did a multitrack version of this!
Ha! Really, really impressed with this one, Jim. I've got a bit of a request, if you wouldn't mind doing it. Think you could do a rendition of "Hard Time Killing Floor Blues"? I'd love to hear that.
I appreciate the comments. I love the Jethro Burns/Sam Bush style octaves and wished I'd been a little more accurate on some of them here. Still getting used to this mandolin.
Thanks so much for this rendetion of 'Mission Impossible' and for responding to my request, Jim. I will now try to come up with a similar version on my mandolin. To anyone listening and watching this particular clip, I would like to encourage you to visit Jim's other videos. He is just such a talented multi-instrumentalist and mandolin player. His rendetion of Jimmy Hendrix 'Voodoo Chile' is just amazing. Another five stars!
Melody is incorrect.

@ukulelecomics That's perhaps because it's mostly the same person
