“Mike Casey’s” or “I Wish I Never Saw You” — solo mandolin
“Mike Casey’s” that I heard from Peadar O’Loughlin and Meave Donnelly’s album “The Thing Itself” - their swing and just tasteful playing is really astounding. It’s known by a bunch of names… one of which is “I Wish I Never Saw You”. I learned it on fiddle and then banjo and I just restrung my Gibson A mandolin and put new tuners on it. Boy, what a wonderful mandolin for being 102 years old. It’s literally the sound I want out of a mandolin for Irish music. #irishtrad #irishtraditionalmusic #gibsonmandolin #1922gibsona #solomandolin #mandolin #irishreels #irishmusic #mandolinreels #mandolintunes #celticmandolin

“Round The House & Mind The Dresser” by the late Charlie Lennon
Переглядів 12521 день тому
“Round The House & Mind The Dresser” by the late Charlie Lennon. I haven’t been playing this music too long, nor have I played fiddle that long, but one of my favorite fiddlers was Charlie. I learned a lot from his DVD that I bought. He told me about cuts, crans, and rolls. All of which I do not do in this video because I need to get more refined with them. That said, rest in peace to the man t...

“Life Is All Checkered (Chequered)” - Irish traditional jig on banjo, fiddle, & bouzouki 🪕 🎻 ☘️ I heard this from Nathan Gourley and Laura Federssen’s album of the same name. I also heard Sorcha Costello’s version on her album “Primrose Lass”. This is much more rudimentary, but I loved the tune so I wanted to do a version myself with some banjo rhythm and bouzouki, as well as, of course, the fi...

“The Maid I Never Forgot” - this one sounds better than the last one I posted, so I am sharing. It still isn’t perfect, but I’m 8-9 months into learning fiddle and this is as good as I’ll get it before I get more experience. #irishreels #irishreel #irishtraditionalmusic #irishtrad #themaidineverforgot #irishtunes #irishfiddle
JJB Prestige 220 mandolin piezo pickup sound sample and review on an Eastman Octave Mandolin MDO305

Lovely pickup that sounded so good I wanted to let others hear and see it! JJB Prestige 220 Mandolin Piezo Transducer. Made in the USA to a small company. Their overall QC and customer service were stellar, as well as their shipping time. Impressed! I don’t know them, I am not a sponsor (yet 😉). Nothing to prove here except support for a great product! I also just bought one for my Irish tenor ...

    You're playing is very good, so there's no need to apologise 😆. The Clareen Oyster is a good banjo. I have one myself. I prefer the nickel strings. My advice would be to try the Puretone banjo strings in a slightly thicker gauge. I find it unfortunate that Clareen have increased their prices on banjos so much. I guess when Dave Boyle (RIP) was still making banjos it kept prices more competitive. I also find Tom is a gentleman who is interested in the customer, their banjo and their needs while Fintan, nice guy and all but is more interested in the business side of things.

    @tfrye724 Місяць тому

    Thanks for posting all these videos, they're an awesome resource for those of us trying to learn. Playing these tunes "straight" based on the basic tabs found online gives such a very basic rendition, so seeing your modifications & ornamentation is a huge help when working toward a properly stylized version of the tune. As a beginner, I don't have instincts yet to independently figure out where and how to add/change/ornament.
