Andy plays "Ashokan Farewell"

Just jamming at the Three Crows in Delano Minnesota, this guy does a sterling performance of the Jay Ungar tune used as the anthem behind the Ken Burns Civil War series. I am dedicating this to my dear friend "Ge" (Glen Blomgren) who passed away February 2nd, 2008 from cancer. He was an avid Civil War enthusiast and I learned a great deal from him about this conflict. Learn more about the song here: http://www.jayandmolly.com/ashokanfarewell.shtml

WOW. That was fantastic!

Sorry to hear about Ge. I remember seeing him in a couple of your early videos. Your walk through Minnehaha Park video with Ge is one of my favorites. My condolences to his family and friends.

Thank you for your thoughts on Ge. We had a lot of fun together and made a lot of videos. Although I miss him I am doing fine and have many good friends. You are one of my best friends on YouTube.
