Lotta these tunes aren't on the records...I just never had the nerve to bother someone in their own home with some of this stuff - Dave Ray

Pan, that doesn't sound like the version of Candyman that John Hurt played at the Newport fest in '65 or '64, this is the version I'm listening to,

Here's a cool Fred McDowell cover by a guy I never heard of before...Mark Nomad. Anyone heard of this guy before?
Nice Triolian, too! Great clip but it took me awhile to figure out what the hell had landed on Merle's head.
Dang miner's headlamp... Calvin,
Modify the above post so you can see how to post embedded Youtube videos. There is a Youtube BBC code button (6th from the left) that you can use and all you need is put video ID in between the codes. The code looks like this: Code: [Select] [yt=425,350]video id goes here[/yt] Thanks, Slack mississippijohnhurt1928
Calvin, Alright, I think they're working now mississippijohnhurt1928
Calvin, When you say "video ID" do you mean the embed or the url.... ? mississippijohnhurt1928
Calvin, Never mind, I figured it out. Yes, great find Calvin. 1966 - both Estes and Rachell in fine form, but Estes looks pretty frail at age 62. Rachell's playing is spectacular (age 56!)

Take a look at this video, its a video of a black banjo player filmed in 1928:
<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3tY_V1cnLfI&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3tY_V1cnLfI&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object> A good smattering of country blues videos in the 93 this guy has uploaded. The kind of player that makes you think you should take up stamp collecting instead. All videos aimed at both hands. Great voice too. Sample "Hesitation Blues" and "The Girl from Ipanema" ..at least...
He prohibits embedding his videos - so here is a listing of all. http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?p=r&user=Fretkillr&page=1 Tasty player, great timing of the basic Am / E lick on Hes Blues, will have to revisit mine which is in a deep rut (I call it a 'groove') worn by 30 plus years of playing it, one of the first tunes I learned to fingerpick. Fretkillr's is more Jorma than Gary but it has a lot going for it. Re the other thread, he's a natural rulebreaker and a mixer, I can dig that.
Slack if you want to learn those fun up the neck things he's doing Jorma breaks them down pretty clearly on one of his DVDs. They're not too difficult. Great camera angle for teaching, I agree. Quote Slack if you want to learn those fun up the neck things he's doing Jorma breaks them down pretty clearly on one of his DVDs. They're not too difficult. Aren't those just a bunch of diminished chords? Which Jorma video is that? (as if I need yet another video) Quote Great camera angle for teaching, I agree. That's what I thought -- you can learn a ton. Very generous of Mr. Fretkillr, whoever he may be... It's on this one: http://www.homespuntapes.com/prodpg/prodpg.asp?prodID=333&prodType=
I'm sure you're really hangin' out to learn Embryonic Journey as well...
