Beautiful! OK- the IMPORTANT lautengeek question: What strings is she wearing?
Also, further praise for that great Blind Boy Fuller piece ("Meat Shakin'
Woman") Same touch, same hand position & technique, and open "D" tuning- pairs
perfectly with the de Visee. Even a similar mood/feeling- just
Yeah, I'll mirror those comments. I enjoyed both too.

Well, we have the option that Weiss et al never had. Pluses and minuses on both

most people went with him, but not everyone, i.e. Pujol and his school. The
