    I am originally from Partick in Glasgow Scotland. When I was growing up there in the tenements there was a man from the Highlands, a Tuechter, had a dulcimer and would open his window on nice evenings and play all the highland reels etc for us kids, it was really a wonderful sound.We were back in Glasgow a number of years ago and visited the Peoples Palace where I heard this wonderful sound being played in the glassed auditorium, it was someone playing the dulcimer. I was back in Partick in the 1950's early 60'sI spoke with teh gentleman who was playing and related my story, he told me that m,an from Partick was very, very well known for playing the dulcimer. Unfortuanetly i have forgotten his name.

    Some songs lend themselves to the hammer dulcimer, some do not. Hotel California most certainly is one of those that does as beautiful and haunting as the original.

    FM radio burned this song to a crisp years ago. Thanks for doing it justice and making it fresh again. Love your dynamics and soft touch.

    What I'd like to see (and especially hear obviously) would be a fifty piece Hammer Dulcimer orchestra - with bass, tenor and other 'weights'. The sound would be epic, like truly, mind-blowingly epic and oh-so-beautiful too I reckon. One instrument is beautiful but it never feel complete or fully realised. Fifty of them in a full-blown hammer dulcimer orchestra would be the ultimate way to hear the sound I think. :)

    You are my only UA-cam channel subscription. I have to find Ed Sheerin somewhere. LOL Love your Hotel California version...have loved this song since the day I first heard it. I am now almost-64. O.M.G. It never gets old, no matter how it's played, sung, or where. Takes me back to those days...Thank you for your beautiful gift.

    I'm a new fan after seeing "Everybody Wants to Rule The World"! What a beautiful sound..the ring of a harp, the triplets of a drum, and the chords of a piano! A song for guitar, without strumming! Thank you for sharing your gifts...I'm signing up on your email list right now.

    Perhaps the most complex hammered dulcimer playing I have ever heard and I have heard a great many . I have a home in England and a home near a small town in Kansas named Yoder . "You can check out anytime you want ... but you can never leave " . I will "check out" from this video , but your music will never leave . Best wishes Mr. Yoder & thanks ~> Lefty

    I found you because Inside Edition UA-cam channel did a segment on popular videos of 2016, mentioned you recently (12/9/16) for your video going viral with an astonishing 85 Million views.
    I was blown away by the snippet they showed, an amazing cover. I never knew hammered dulcimer could sound so good.
    I first saw someone playing it at an outdoor gathering, circa 1980s, and fell in love with the instrument, an art piece to me, and the remarkable sound it made.
    I watched your whole video, and in the comments it was recommended to listen to your rendition of Hotel California.
    When I heard the song, I was a teenager living on my own. I was coming to terms with adulthood, and how surreal the world seemed to be. The revelations I had that reality may not be what I'd been taught, and a lot of smoke & mirrors going on.
    I grew up in the upscale 'burbs of San Francisco, with a front row seat to the 1960s drug boom culture. The epiphanous contrast of being a citizen in real life propelled me into something of an existential crisis.
    Speaking of which, at the time I had finally read the classic books of The Stranger by Albert Camus, Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankel, and The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge by Carlos Castenada.
    Thank you for the memories.
