Before anybody asks, no. This has nothing to do with the big project. That is a different thing altogether. More on that down the road.

Also, concerning slide technique: I use extra light strings and an extremely low action. I like glass slides. The tone is all in the touch – and the touch only comes with practice.

If you like this sound, just get a slide and start playing barre chords while you sing folk songs. Over time, after singing several hundred songs, your technique will improve. That’s how I got touch and technique where it is. You can too.

Gus Cannon did it first. Then The Grateful Dead recorded it as The New, New Minglewood Blues. So, I did it on the banjo. With a bottleneck. Now it’s The New, New, New Minglewood Blues.

People have been asking me for ages to post tracks on Bandcamp.

Now, I know people say that all the time. In my case, people have really been asking me to post some audio files in some sort of central location for a long time.

I started the page today. Jinx Blues and Samson and Delilah are available for download. More tracks to come.

My take on a song by one of my heroes, Blind Willie Johnson – only on the banjo. Because banjos are cool.

I love this song.

Dear Old Dad and I have to hit the road today, so there will not be a Daily Frail exercise this morning.

Practice anyway.
