An Andy Statman classic from his album East Flatbush Blues - check it out! We discovered this album as roommates at the Berklee College of Music and it quickly became a touchstone of inspiration for us and the direction we were trying to go as mandolin players. Andy's approach and playing opened up a whole new world to us about the possibilities of musical freedom and limitless spiritual expression on the instrument at a very formative time.

It's just impeccably done. And, it doesn't have vocals, which means it's easier to listen while I work. :)
Last One on the Line is just amazing. I would love to hear more from this group. meatnordrink
