I'd just like to say for the record that I probably do, in fact, need a spanking from the aforementioned naughty lady. (g)
I was joking about Ricky in the "buck" comment. I was tipping my hat to him before that in with the Jack White video link. I haven't bought the new CD but I plan to. I agree with everything the Master Tater said. We all have our pluses and minuses. Just like Mr. Monroe. I'll try to be more polite, but I don't know how to tippy toe. I think one of the weakness of a certain other mandolin site where a lot of us spend time is that the moderators pounce if stray from the realms of sweetness and light. Express an opinion about Gibson pricing and quality sometime and see what happens. (g) (Disclaimer: I own, and love, my Gibson Adam Steffy F-5.) Peace to Nelson. I didn't mean to offend. I was gonna say earlier, but didn't want to stir the pot, that despite what you might say about Mr. Skaggs looking for commercial veins to mine, I give him credit for taking risks to provide for his family. I don't have a list of that small number of people you can say "make a decent living playing bluegrass," but Mr. Skaggs has to be near the top when it comes to commercial, financial success. Of course, that doesn't excuse pride, aloofness or rudeness. And as a fan, in my humble opinion nothing excuses "Superfreak," and I'm not anything like a bluegrass hardcore. Sometimes he tries too hard for that middle-of-the-road commercial audience, in this critic's opinion. (Mr. Compton's choice of material, however, I have always found to be impeccably tasty!) The comment of MC's that intrigues me the most, though, is this: "I'd like to have as strong a contact with the driving force as he does." I like to discuss that one with you, Boss.
