On an album called "12-String Dobro" made by Tut Taylor, there is some amazing 12-string FLATPICKING done by Clarence White. Not blues, of course, but sort of "country/bluesish".... BTW, Kendall- "Personal opinions are never off base"????? I don't think Art's are off-base, but there are a bunch of Britney (and other "singers" too numerous to mention) fans whose personal opinions are waaaaay off! Just because somebody likes it, that does not make it music.
