Yesterday I was in a reflective mood, today was approaching.
So I decided to play a bunch of songs and choose one of the Ramuda and one song that go together well.
Sooo….Then I decided to ride the full Ramuda and match each one to a song….
Matches thus far :
The “Tree”/Euro OM : “Sweet Melissa”
The Otis Taylor H-13 Madi/Italian : “St. James Infirmary ”
Three more to work out today……My Revelation/reflection ?? ?
“I’m Right Where I’m Supposed To Be “…..

Last night, spent 4+ hours on the OM during the weekly work jam. Here’s what I can remember of what we played. People kept calling tunes and we kept going for it one after the other. Covered a fair bit of ground and spent a lot of time laughing about “we played this after that?”

Yesterday is behind….
Well the THE MARTIN….Matched with : Croce, Goodman, Buffett, The Byrds.
I guess 27 years of aged EIR/Sitka , thousands of hours of playing/holding/traveling……….makes for an old friend who has a great voice…..a voice that brings back lots of memories,
Reflections /Revelations : I have a fine Ramuda of guitars in both voice and visual……… and I’m starting to get the hang of playing them……I can begin to bring out their individuality.
REALIZATION : I still have so much to learn…….compared to Y’All.

The feeling of having a lot to learn never goes away.
It’s the travel not the destination that makes us.
