Well I really enjoyed that, after being pretty lukewarm about the whole thing at the beginning: I like the way that acoustic instruments and players can become rock n roll if used in the right way and combining energetic textures with subtle and continuous variation. It was actually really good to see it working so well, as with my little band we are realising that we are not bluegrass or country, or blues, but something else, using blues and counry techniques, but with a louder attitude, and are trying to find ways to get that kind of texture with just guitar and mando with a fiddle on top.,
