Dawg clip guest staring Compton/Long

2009-03-08 Thread Joseph

This is a pretty cool spotlight on the Dawg.  It was done at the time
when they were recording Stomp so we get to see some cool footage of
Mike and David L.  There's 3 of my favorite pickers in one room
together.  Dawg and Mike's styles are so different but I dig them both
the same.  Strange how that works.  Mr. Compton, how was that
experience recording at Acoustic Disc?  Any other projects coming from
there in the future?  Stomp is a desert island disc.

The clip is 7 and a 1/2 minutes and I think you need Real Player to
watch.

Samuel Bayard Books on Ebay

2009-03-08 Thread mistertaterbug

Howdy.
I don't know if you folks know about Samuel P. Bayard and his
contribution to the preservation of stringband/fiddle music. Mr.
Bayard was a musicologist from Pennsylvania and put out a couple very
popular and increasingly rare books primarily on fiddle tunes from
that area. There are both on Ebay right now. The smaller is titled
Hill Country Tunes. The link is:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:ITitem=250381106589

This little book is a gem. I bought a number of these for around $25
to give away, but they aren't around for that anymore. Under $100 is a
bargain anymore.

The other Bayard book is titled Dance to the Fiddle, March to the
Fife. This is the book John Hartford got Squirrels Hunters from.
Here is a link to this one:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Dance-to-the-Fiddle-March-to-the-Fife-Folk-Tunes-in-PA_W0QQitemZ120383351193QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Nonfiction_Book?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116

There are two copies of Dance... but this one is the cheaper of the
two. The other is listed at a mere $385.

I found a copy a few years ago for $50 and seems to me brother Don
Grieser got one a few weeks later for about $65. I have not seen
another copy for under $125 since. I have seen them listed as much as
$800. Just thought I'd put this out there. Oh, I am watching the
auction for the smaller book so be forewarned. G

2009-03-08 Thread Mike Hoffmann

Wow - Dance to the fiddle, march to the fife.  They had that at the  
UMass library when I was just learning.  I used to try to play the  
tunes from it along with recordings.  I remember learning that Gotta  
Quit Kicking my Dog Around was McKinley's  (I think) campaign song!   
Shame they are so expensive!

Re: Samuel Bayard Books on Ebay

2009-03-08 Thread Don Grieser

Yes, Brother Don has both of them along with some other tunebook gems.
If you can't pony up the $ it'll take to bake the Tater, there's a pdf
of the Hill Country Tunes book on the outernet here (with a nice
picture of Sarah Armstrong, our favorite tune purveyor):

http://www.mne.psu.edu/lamancusa/tunes/hct/

This hasn't seemed to hurt the price of the actual books any so I wish
they'd do this with more out-of-print tune books.
