Well some one said at a jam here in what seems to be a pretty dry bluegrass city for being the 4th largest city in the country... you sound just like "Pat Compton"... I was playing one of the tunes that I have actually got a handle on just ask Tater. I said you mean Mike?
He seemed to really enjoy my attempt at the Monroe approach. I am with you malagrass, I don't hear that flashy bidness either. My wife was just looking over my shoulder and agreed with Terry on the "easy" line. She said in her self admitted uneducated and unfamiliar ear that "monroe was clean, FAST and full of Passion." "Thile is well thought out rehearsed and played licks." "While Monroe probably didn't play anything the same way twice, only what was felt on that day." I described the split string scenario that most of you have probably seen on the McCoury Bluegrass Mandolin DVD on how the first E string got hooked on the 6th fret after being pressed and he came down on the 3rd fret and finished the break and he turned to Del and said "did you hear what that man'lin just did"... I feel happy every time a Monroe Sound comes out of my mandolin when I am improvising, it really makes me feel like this is startin' to sink in more and more... Thanks Tater, Magilla a.k.a.
