In the Presence of Frankie Gavin!!! Well Played Indeed!

[@johnyoung2705]

That was delightful, Andrew. You actually made that old thing sound good! Well Done! ;)

[@spencerhawkins9107]

That's the funniest comment ever 😂 It's a Strad !!!!!

[@fttFrankDaTank]

It's made for you Andrew! I'd be shaking holding it
Great rendition of Miss Langford's, Its on me list of tunes to learn!

[@mla2069]

Brilliant.But the Strad is used at 1/1000000 of his possibilities.Could as well have played this tune on a tin fiddle.
First position.

He gets to play them with both his hands if that clears up your question. Martin ☘ 🎶

[@andrewjcaden]

Thanks man! Just tagging along😂

[@AlephThree]

Excellent playing, and better than me. To get anywhere near Frankie, the individual notes really need better articulation. For example by using more even amounts of bow for each note, rather than longer slurs where some of the notes get glossed over. Good luck!
