This is a thing I wrote and played on my ol' Dobro.
I also added some guitars, mandolin, banjo, harmonica and bass.

The page with pics and MP3 embedded is here.
The MP3 itself is here.

Don, I heard you play in Joliet - I even got you on video.
And I think you're pretty darn talented!


Thanks Dean, I use Sonar and/or Cubase - and I use Wavelab for mastering, burning etc.


Hick, thank you buddy - I'd like to see that too!
I'll get to work on it . .

Love that old-timey sound! I learned to play some of this style way back in the early '70s. Just hearing it makes my little heart go bumpety, bump.....Bump!
