Hi, I've had a couple ofEmails asking about the apparent scrawls on the cedar soundboard of the instrument being played. They are the signatures of some of the people who have played it,( including that of Jean Ritchie). The back of my favourite HD has even more ! Sad, or what 9.gif , lol.

That was the intention ff, lets hope it works ! Robin, have you ever considered the thought that the noter vibrato mentioned is the natural result of realising what a talented group of 'peers' I am playing too. Likely to give anyone the shakes.........18.gif

best wishes to you both

Hey, Steph, Keith has let John H know you may be posting soon! So, you know John is waiting for your insightful comment on this video. :) Love and hugs from me!PS-Is that noter vibrato cool or what!

Keith ! What a great piece of news to start the day with !41.gif Thanks for keeping us in the loop. Give her a (gentle) hug from me, and tell her I'm thinking perhaps animation involving Roosters in tutu's ?

thoughts often with you both, I presume to think that my current experience with a sick loved one maybe gives me an insight as to how you feel these days ?

JohnH.... That was great. Loved the vibrato with the noter (note to self: practice that!) If that doesn't put a grin on her face, I'll be very surprised. Glad you thought of doing it!

Hey, you can at least say you made it113.gif And in the varied hands that have touched it, including yours, it is top endSmile.gif

Hello James, thank you for watching and making comment. Nothing 'top end' about the dulcimer i'm afraid, it's one I made in ' 86, like me a bit bent and battered now ! THo' on the other hand it has been in the hands of Jean Ritchie, Maddie Mcneil, Lorraine Lee Hammond, Roger Nicholson, Mary Mason to name but a few, so for me It is 'top end' !113.gif

best wishes

K. thought that you and J would appreciate my giggle, truth be told I've played 'Cluck' so many times on both MD &HD it was interesting just to muck about with it for Steph !

, Cheryl, Dusty and Wayne, you have all been around here long enough to know her 'kookie' approach to life, so probably well understand my approach to this project.

thanks for making comment
