Alison Krauss and Union Station.
My sweety got it for me for Valentine's Day. [Smile]

My favorite on the album is their rendition of The Beatles' "I WILL". The banjo solo in the song(played in a sort of "classical guitar" fingerpicking style)is just beautiful.

....don't play any music in the shop because we will not work, lol . . .

I'll throw down a brush and grab the ol' box an' wind up sittin' there for way too long pickin' along with the tunes . . .So, I always listen to talk radio:

"American family Radio"
"Clik-n-Clak bros.: Car Talk"
"Whaddya know? with Michael Feldman"
Also Garrison Keeler, Shawn Hannady, & Rush.

Saturday evenings tho', we will get around the radio and tune into
"Jugs, Jukes an' Jazz", "Piano Jazz"
and then "Bama Bluegrass". [Smile]

Terry,
I like some smooth jazz too. Listen to it in the truck sometimes.

Sheila,
I wish we had a bluegrass station around here. Don't listen to "country" but whenever I did they would sometimes play PART of a bluegrass piece like "blackmountain rag", "earl's breakdown", or maybe "wildwood flower" and then cut it off right before the news or something. I HATE that.

Take the guitar home and you won't be tempted.

Good old Cape Breton style fiddle music - the CD player either kicks out Ashley MacLeod, Natalie MacMaster, or Leahy - every day. The ECMA's really ticked me off - theres more fiddlers in the maritimes than crotch-crickets on a wharf-rat, & not one on the ECMA's. I guess since Natalie moved to Ontario, no fiddlers were deemed as worthy. Pity.

Vynulled a big utility truck all day in someone else's garage. They had my favorite Pittsburgh radio staion cranked up...105.9 the X, lots of alternative, prehistoric X music (early 80's-90's stuff) and my FAVORITE Pittsburgh band, The Clarks, redoing "The River" way better than The Boss.
Love...Jill
(but I do like bluegrass too! [Wink] )

I have a 5 string, mostly use the forward roll but can pick out the melody notes along with the fill notes on most any tune with it. I know more rolls on the guitar than the banjo but I'm working on it. Picked up mandolin this year and it's a lot of fun to play too. It's so easy to learn, wish I'd tried it sooner. Been playing guitar for over 20 years. Have a solid top Cortez that sounds real nice for flat pickin' and a Yamaha 12 string I use for finger pickin' and strummin'. My sons and I mostly play them in church.

Don't take that git-fiddle home, it will keep ya out of jail someday, at least for me, it works. Whenever a person or situation gets to the point of doing or saying something dumb, I excuse myself, retire to office, pick up banjo, and give them an uninterrupted version of "Sally Ann", or "Sally-Goodin'". Keeps my hands off of them, and me out of jail, by third verse, they're gone, anyway.

Tunes heard in shop (yes, i agree w/ ryan, music,loud, get much work done): any Flatts/Scruggs; J.D.Crow; Butch Robbins; Eric Weisman; Doug Dillard;Tony Rice; Bela Fleck; Sonny Osbourne; Rarely Herd; Kentucky Thunder; NewGrass Revival; Doyle Lawson; Rickie Skaggs; Allison Krause; etc....

Play banjo and mandolin...not very good, but I like it...
 
Posted by BrianTheBrush (Member # 1298) on :
 
In the office late today...

*NRBQ with Carl Perkins/ Live
*Joe Strummer and the Mescalaros/ Rock Art and the XRay Style

Finishin' up paper work so I can go play at Boone's tomorrow.

Keep on keepin' on

Love that bluegrass.When I practice 6-string I usually play along with CC's, like the Del McCoury Band, Rhonda Vincent, Blue Hwy, to name a few. Or a little Doc Watson... We have a few pickers around, so we play together every once in awhile. I have music in the office...I sometimes walk around and play guitar when I'm working on new ideas.I moved the office into my house so everyone wouldn't think I was either crazy or lazy... playin a guitar in the middle of the day. Also I'm kinda shy about playing in public. [Roll Eyes]

Jeff,you ol' dog you...
there you were at the Muster and Steve and I were playin' away, and did you come up and grab a gittar? No-o-o-o-. Coulda used you.

Sheila...'strue...I do know most them ol'tymers. and even a coupla newer ones. Love to make the Dixie meet, but can't do it this year. Gotta go to Pat's out in Saskatchewan, and maybe down to New Brunswick, if they can dig themselves outta the snow by August. How about we make a date for Mike's in '05? I'll bring my favourite old Ovation Matrix II.. so beat up it makes Willy's look bran' new, 'n we'll kick a few horse apples.
