Pretty new tune for me, but I heard it on the radio last night on my drive home and haven't been able to get it out of my head.

"This is a link to a 38 year-old recording of the National Guitar Flatpicking Championships in Winfield, Kansas held September, 1975. Mark O'Connor (contestant #23) just had his 14th birthday one month earlier in August. Dan Crary, Norman Blake and Doc Watson were among the judges for the contest. The kid guitar player competing against all adults, played his own arrangements of traditional tunes as well as his new composition "Pickin' in the Wind." For the finals, one of his selections was his own arrangement of "Dixie Breakdown." O'Connor brought down the house and he won 1st place and the championship. Listening to it today, it more than holds up. He was playing his 1958 Martin guitar with so much strength and fluidity in his hands and fingers in addition to his imaginative licks and ideas, it is hard to imagine even after 40 years of bluegrass with its growing popularity, how few professional guitarists today could equal it. The story of the young boy from Seattle who could play any string instrument spread throughout the bluegrass and fiddle world." (Recording is available on Mark O'Connor "Retrospective" - Rounder Records/Concord Records)

Sweet. That brings me to a great lineup of the David Grisman Quintet with Marc O'Connor in their ranks playing Grisman's Dawg's Rag:

I picked up a slew of mint condition jazz & blues 10" LPs from a furniture shop in Bridport last week, at the very keen price of £2 each! The Duke sounds awesome on original vinyl, especially classics such as "Harlem Airshaft", as does Fats – weirdly, the Django stuff sounds like it was dubbed from disc / wire recorder, which I guess it may have been... it'll take me a while to wade through this lot, not that I'm complaining! :D
