Tuesday, February 24, 2015. Here's Indiana Firefly, a John Reischman. Tune from his 1999 CD Up In The Woods. Which has a lot of great little tunes for mandolin pickers.

Mandoliniana: December 2012
http://mandoliniana.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 4, 2012. Here's my attempt at Doc and Dawg, the title track to a wonderful album that Doc Watson and David Grisman made together. It was released in 1997 from tracks recorded over many years, mostly at Grisman's home. You can download the tab here. Posted by David Mold. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Mandoliniana: April 2012
http://mandoliniana.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 2, 2012. Bury Me Beneath The Willow. I played a version of this for the Mandolin Cafe song a week group and someone asked me to tab it out, which made me look at it again of course and play it in a slightly different way. Anyway, here's more or less the version I tabbed out, and here's the link to the tab. You'll have to let the notes ring a little more than the tab really shows, but if you look at the tab and watch the video hopefully it becomes clear how I'm intending it to be played.

Mandoliniana: August 2010
http://mandoliniana.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 29, 2010. Posted by David Mold. Friday, August 20, 2010. Yet another fiddle tune with a girl's name for the title. This fiddle tune is the one quoted in Bill Monroe's famous song "Uncle Pen", he says in that song that Jenny Lynn is "where fiddlin' begins" - whatever that may mean. Slow one first, and then a faster one with full backing band provided by me, me and me. Posted by David Mold. Monday, August 16, 2010. Another good Bill Monroe bluesy waltz for a hot summer night.

Mandoliniana: May 2010
http://mandoliniana.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 17, 2010. This is a great Irish hornpipe that's tempting to perk up with a few floaty guitar chords. The melody I'm playing here is very similar to what's notated in the Mandolin Picker's Fakebook. Posted by David Mold. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Here's a link to all the posts with tab.

Mandoliniana: July 2010

Saturday, July 31, 2010. More Song A Week Thoughts. My last post really only covered the period after you know the tune you're going to play or have learned it from tab or whatever. But there's also a process I go through before I get to that point, so here are my thoughts about that. Posted by David Mold. Friday, July 30, 2010. A Song A Week. You don't have to join the song-a-week group on Mandolin Cafe. Here's how to learn a song as quickly as possible:. Are you Adam Steffey? Do not worry that the spee...

Mandoliniana: January 2010
http://mandoliniana.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 29, 2010. Here's another one of those celtic waltzes, this time written in 1903 by James Scott Skinner. To celebrate the life of Hector MacDonald. If you read his story you'll see the hero's life is a rather sad one that ends in suicide. I borrowed some of the ideas for this arrangement from a version I found on iTunes by a band called " Jameson's Revenge. But I added the ending myself after reading the Wikipedia article on Hector.

Mandoliniana: March 2012
http://mandoliniana.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 12, 2012. Recently, quite a few people have been asking about how I record my videos. Here's what I use for recording:. Mic: AKG Perception 200 - that's that big ol' large diaphragm condenser mic you can see in the foreground in some of my videos. It's not a really expensive one, but it does give you a much wider dynamic range than, for example, a Shure SM57. Cost is about $175. I have have lots of sound absorbing material in my room so it isn't an echo chamber. Posted by David Mold. Many o...
