So, anyone who revels in acoustic guitar played finger-picking
style might find Martin Simpson’s Medley
of Celtic Airs six minutes of bliss, as I do. This is what I would have
spent much of my life doing, had there been somebody to teach me the technique
when I was a lad. I tried to work it out, but failed. It wouldn’t have made my
life any happier, but it might have provided some aesthetic vindication for my
forays into the pit.
On a more positive note, I’m now going to do something I’ve
never done before: use two YouTube
videos in the same post. This one represents my aspirational side. I might have
failed in the music stakes, but I can still aspire to toilet duck standard in
the matter of hard liquor.
