After playing for a few years,'Rag Bag', 'Look So Good', you soon realize they are derivatives of Amazing Grace,Auld Lang Syne,Loch Lomond and all the other Scottish Reels. Much like Mark Knopflers 'Going Home Theme'. I idolized Lindley for a good 15 years but soon learned he was very basic compared to the technical difficulty of what Jerry Douglas was/is playing. Lindley is a great gateway player to discovering lap style playing.
Well said. David got me into lap style and Jerry took it further. I got to study with Jerry for a week and he really kicked my G tuning Dobro playing in the butt. David though has a unique style that knows no parallel. I don't think anyone can really duplicate his right hand technique...and then there's all the other instruments that he mastered. I love them both.
Beautiful Bruce! and nice story!
Love that Weissenborn sound - nothing like it
Another disciple of Dave's. Well done sir!
A sweet tribute, Bruce. Superb.
Thank you!
Nicely Done!
Me too. Thanks.
Sounds brilliant!
Great sound!
Nicely done, sir! I too was inspired by Mr.Dave. I too picked up steel bar, laid my guitar lap and learned "Glad Rags!"
I assume you meant "RagBag", nor "GladRags".
