Hi all,
It's been a while since I posted here so how about a little blues with my new toy, the mandolin.
Enjoy,
Carl

He had a left hand like God. He didn't know what key he was playing in, but he played them all. He could play the ragtime stride bass, but it bothered him because his stomach got in the way of his arm, so he used a walking bass instead. I can remember when I was thirteen - this was 1896 - how Turk would play one note with his right hand and at the same time four with his left. We called it 'sixteen' - they called it boogie-woogie - Eubie Blake remembering William Turk, from Giles Oakley's The Devil's Music, BBC

And quite courageous too, challenging the deities of the Performance Corner again (or was that the Backporch? I keep confusing them...) Great work Carl. You make it look easy. You may be Belgian but there's no waffling on this tune (apologies to all)!
He makes it all look so easy! The sign of a great talent! I never got much beyond 3 chords in G on the mandolin.
Thanks for sharing this with us, Carl. Heel leuk, jonge! Pages: [1] Go Up
