Subject: RE: Unusual autoharp technique
Just that if I was rat-tat-tatting, it would be on something else entirely.

At any rate, as per Don Meixner's comment--everyone has different interests and tastes. But this music is "real" folk music, field recording type stuff, and not revival stuff, not contemporary music derived from roots music, or any such stuff, and I think, probably it sounds a lot more like the old forms of our American/Anglo-European folk music than we might first think. It makes me wonder how many of the self-professed folk music lovers here would have actually liked listening to "our" music, the way it was originally played.
