Flop Eared Mule CD Reviews and Response

Ryan,

Just a follow up:  I received the Flop Eared Mule CD and the Fiddler's Almanac on Monday 

in good condition. Have listened to the CD numerous times already. Great CD and I

enjoy your old timey style. Same style I play too.

Hi:

This is just a quick message to let you know that I received (and enjoyed playing) the

"Flop Eared Mule" CD.

Thanks again,

Hello Ryan,

I received your package yesterday. It came very quickly, I was surprised. I LOVE both the

book and the CD. They are both excellent tools for learning. The solo fiddle CD is

perfect. It really lets you hone in on what the fiddle is doing. Your version of the

Bonaparte's retreat is great. (Flop Eared Mule CD) I am working on that one now. I was

really impressed to see the catalog, at the wealth of materials you have written.

Do you have any plans to record further solo fiddle CDs? I think it would be an excellent

idea. I would buy them. It is hard to find old tunes like Billy in the Low Ground and the

Arkansas Traveler. ... I appreciate your time and courtesy. You have already greatly

helped my fiddling. Take care,

By the way, my daughter loves the CD!  She plays the fiddle also. My great great

grandfather played her fiddle in the mining camps in the 1860's.He was blind and part of

a group of 4 called the Blind Troupe or( blind boys ). They performed also in many towns

along the North Coast, even in our town of Red Bluff I found an article about when they

played here.

Keep up the good work!
