- Hi Mr Carlini,
I've got a question. Not sure if it'll make any sense because maybe it's something that should be obvoius (but it isn't to me).
I love the way you do "Moonlight in Vermont" with Don Stiernberg (an I've stolen what I can). On the bridge -- "telegraph cables sing down the highway...." part -- you seem to almost randomly decide which beats to let ring (a very few) and which beats are left-hand muted (most of them). It sounds so perfect the way you've done it, but it seems random. So is it? ...or am I just missing the obvious count on which you are damp, damp, ringing the rhythm?

I was just trying to figure out if the discussions were likely to center on things that you had put in FGM or just be general in nature.

Martin Guitar Owners
Here is a group for people who have Martin Guitars, or is looking for one, or if you just really like Martin Guitars!
Mark Thompson posted a blog postRobin Kessinger Festival
I just got back from the Robin Kessinger Festival. Lots of great guitar picking. I took a workshop with Steve Kaufman. Everyone in the workshop got to pick in an individual jam with Steve. It was great fun. It would have been even more fun if I hadn't been shaking in my shoes!See More
