The CD is called A Tale To Tell, and it comes with an 8 page booklet with pictures, descriptions, etc.

I think I used 5 or 6 different guitars. I do use the L-5 on my cover of Maybellene, which I play on a 1970 Guild F-212. The L-5 is on the bottleneck overdub.

There's also a download option available. Thanks for asking!

Well, that certainly won't have hurt getting that relaxed, resonant sound!

Found your CDs on YT Music, enjoyed listening to them. Am I way out of line if I say a number of tracks reminded me of Leadbelly (as performed by Eric Bibb)?

I’m not worthy, but my mom always said to say thanks for any compliment.

Thank you!

Heh, seems you yourself definitely picked up some of Mark's mojo, or is it Monteleone's sawdust that inspire that comment?
