  • My July 1st Patreon post teaches you how to play Martin Carthy's arrangement of this bagpipe March from the late 1800s. Tier 2 patrons receive access to a lesson video explaining the fine details of the piece, a beautifully edited score with Carthy's fingerings, and access to our discussion surrounding the piece. It's the best thing going on in the world of finger-style education.

    Best cover of this I've heard: Cleanly played but, more importantly, has that metronomic Carthy pulse.

      Was really hard to get close to the way he plays. Not enough people talk about Carthy!

    I liked Martin Carthy’s playing on “Ten Man Mop, or Mr. Reservoir Butler Rides Again” by Steeleye Span. At the time, I was more swayed by Peter Knight’s fiddling and never followed up with Mr. Carthy. Seems I have some catching up to do! Great playing like always.

    Amazing to hear you playing music from the British Isles. Martin Carthy is a genius and a national treasure. it’s incredible how you handle this one so gracefully when even Martin struggles through it a little when you hear him play. For me, however, Tony McManus is the best at arranging and playing pipe tunes on the guitar.

    • @andrewlardner
      @andrewlardner  Рік тому +4

      No bother Colin. Rode NT5. I still use all the recording equipment I had as a grad student so it's all inexpensive stuff. Knowing how to properly use what you have will yield good results. I've even thought about doing a series of videos using budget equipment and inexpensive guitars to show that you don't need to go into debt to get a really good sound.

I will definitely try the rode NT5. your recordings sound so good and it’s nice to know that it can be done with inexpensive equipment. Thank you for your help. And keep on making amazing music 😀
