Others have already accepted you for what you are so just do your best and use it as a learning experience. Look at it in very technical terms like how would it sound different if I positioned the mic differently or used more down strokes or bought a much better instrument or whatever. Pretend that your looking at someone else and what would you tell them to make their pickin' better. This has been fun to see how everyone treats the tune a little differently.

Re: country blues
But supposing you can't remember any names? Funny imagining someone arriving from the Shetlands to Mississippi. Can barely imagine two climates further apart. And what is the name of that mode that starts on the 6th note of the major scale?

Re: country blues
Val and Robin, I have a Shetland Island tune here that has an A part that is almost exactly the B part of Grub Springs (if one thought of the Grub Springs version being an on-steroids take, a few more notes, and a jazzed up rhythm). I am convinced that a fiddler long ago arrived in Old Miss, from the Shetlands, then over time, a Mississippi spin was put on the tune, giving it a crooked and kinda spooky effect, while accommodating the local dance style. A mate of mine has said that in old time music there are really only 5 or 6 tunes. And only one model one. Meaning most of the old time music is just a variation of one of the 5 or 6 tunes. When my mate hears a new tune, she links in her mind to say ...Sally Goodin or one of the other basic 5. We have the fire going here, as even though it is summer, its been cold and cloudy with cold wind and rain. We are right on the edge of a weather front, so once in a while for an hour or so warm summer sunshine, then the south pole climate moves in again. linder On Dec 21, 12:13 am, Val Mindel wrote: > Robin, that's a ramble in many dimensions.

Re: country blues
Robin, that's a ramble in many dimensions. But Dusty Miller and Grub echo each other beyond the key thing. There's a clear path there. Garfields is another journey. For me its still such a finger twister that I can't relax and get into the music of it. In the rambling spirit, I've managed to get this far in the holiday season without getting totally sick of Christmas music (probably because I haven't ventured much into commercial establishments). Life is snowy here in Vermont, but cozy ... just the right sort of weather to hunker down and learn tunes. best, val On Dec 19, 2:48 pm, Robin Gravina wrote: > Was playing the Grub the other day, and found myself playing Dusty > Miller, then today while fixing my daughter's crappy keyboard, played > it in E flat, starting on C and it turned into garfields BB. anyone > else? or have I been listening to too much Capt Beefheart these days? > And in Spain, Enrique Morente has just died too: fantastic flamenco > singer with as wide a palette as you can imagine: recorded with a Punk > band, but was also purer than the pure. > So endeth the ramble > > 2010/12/18, mistertaterbug : > > > Must be a girl thing!

Re: country blues
Was playing the Grub the other day, and found myself playing Dusty Miller, then today while fixing my daughter's crappy keyboard, played it in E flat, starting on C and it turned into garfields BB. anyone else? or have I been listening to too much Capt Beefheart these days? And in Spain, Enrique Morente has just died too: fantastic flamenco singer with as wide a palette as you can imagine: recorded with a Punk band, but was also purer than the pure.

Re: country blues
Very good points Gathel. I have already learned alot about myself watching my video attempts. Like do I really hold my pick like that?!! Kinda like listening to your own voice. We do tend to be our own worst critics. I also find this group very supportive of everyone's attempts and hope to have my version of "Bug Water" up soon, double slops and all.

Re: country blues
I agree with the big Tater. What's really important is to have fun and do what you can. You learn a lot from listening and watching yourself play. You see all the mistakes and hear that stuff you thought sounded like one thing doesn't really sound that way. It's painful for most of us to see and hear recordings of ourselves but the thing I've realized is that everybody else has already seen and heard what you really sound like and most still like to pick with you. Others have already accepted you for what you are so just do your best and use it as a learning experience. Look at it in very technical terms like how would it sound different if I positioned the mic differently or used more down strokes or bought a much better instrument or whatever. Pretend that your looking at someone else and what would you tell them to make their pickin' better. This has been fun to see how everyone treats the tune a little differently. It's easy to see how, in the days before recordings, that tunes evolved. Keep 'em coming. Gathel On Fri, Dec 17, 2010 at 8:48 AM, mistertaterbug wrote: > Just do what you can do.

Re: country blues
Just do what you can do. No judgements from out here in Taterbug land. Val invented a new phrase the other day by accident(slip of the tongue) that I think applies to all of us. Her phrase is "double slops". Too funny, too true. Loosen up and enjoy yourself. You don't have to wear your best hat in front of us. We like you like you are, warts and all. You listening, Clyde?

Re: country blues
That goes for me too..heck I have only been working on mando serious for a couple of yearsI working too. I draw some and find what I aim for from my head is nothing like what comes out on paper.

Re: country blues
I've been working pretty hard on Grub Springs, have recorded it three times now but what's coming out is not what I'm hearing in my head, I'm not happy with it at all. I think I have to grind it up again a few more times and see what comes out. This is strange for me as I'm not the least bit bashful about my playing, I've been know to jump right into any jam, crash and burn and come up smiling like I meant to do it just like that. But this is different, serious folks that know what they are doing and some mighty fine pickers. Not so easy to skin your ignorance in front of your heroes. I'm working on it. Clyde Clevenger Just My Opinion, But It's Right Salem, Oregon Old Circle - Original Message - From: "mistertaterbug" Can I say something here? Can I be slightly a hard ass? Here's the deal...this tune of the month thing is about each of us playing our interpretation of a given song/tune. That means, whatever your muse tells you, that's what you do. If you hear a song in a different genre, have at it. If you want to play it on something beside mandolin, do it. Give your emotions their due. Give your whims their due. Give every phrase your best.
