Just bought Bruce Molsky's latest, Soon Be Time, and while I haven't listened in-depth yet, what I've heard is really great. If it weren't enough that he's a great fiddler and banjo player, and a fine singer, he's also a really skilled fingerpicking guitar player.
Which reminds me: When Poor Man's Troubles came out, I spent a lot of time figuring out Molsky's guitar arrangement of Henry Thomas's "Fishin' Blues." I actually ran out of steam after transcribing the opening instrumental verse. I keep meaning to come back to it & transcribe the whole thing but who knows when I'll get 'round to that. Anyway the instrumental part has most of what you need to play the verses. So it's here if anyone's interested.
And the new Molsky disc is in rotation along with a bunch of other good recent additions.
thanks for listening,
John
