This is me >> protectionist) playing the tune Rights of Man. Key of G on the mandolin. I botched it just a bit at the end, but it's 99% OK. Hope you like it.

Here's a little historical background on the tune. It is a baroque tune from the time of William III & Mary II, in England (1689 AD). At the dual coronation of the English King and Queen, the English parliament drew up the Declaration of the Rights of Man (the English Bill of Rights), and the forerunner of our US Constitution. It's generally considered an Irish tune, but is really English in origin, probably composed by an Irish mandolinist or fiddler, whose name will never be known, but (just like classical music), the tune lives on, with those of us who love it, and play it, and respect its massive historical significance.

 
I play more eighth notes in the arrangement I know, also the first section repeats.

Didn't you post this a while back?

And wassup with the reference to "academy award actors"? :uhh:
 
I love mandolin music, especially the old stuff. Anyone who wants to play me another tune is fine by me. Pogo

The video is copy/pasted from another of my threads (about academy awards)

Funny that you didn't notice I added an entire extra (3rd) part, which is similar to the second part, but an octave lower. You notice ?

I intend to post many more - not just the MANDolin, but the VIolin too, as well as the guitar (acoustic and electric)

Yeah I did notice, just didn't mention it.

When I was playing I liked to run Gounoud's Funeral March of a Marionette to stretch the left hand beyond the first position -- sounds pretty good on the instrument ...

Nothing against any of the music you post, but I'd appreciate if you would not post too much video in this thread. I'm trying to keep it as primarily one of MY music, without that getting lost in a mileu of other stuff. Other posters can do the same in threads of theirs too, in fact I'd like to see more of these type of threads, from other posters, without the musical identities getting lost in the shuffle.

WOW dood. Full of yourself much? What, you think you own USMB now?

No, just having a thread for my music. Anyone else can do the same (and should), as I said. :biggrin:

I think it's a nice idea.

Then open a fucking galley. This is a public forum for use by all users. What's more I answered a request, so get the FUCK over yourself and dismiss the idea that the universe revolves around your wangly ass.

WOW! Check out the animosity-hysteria. Can't imagine what you'd do if somebody were to cut you off (accidently) on the road. Hope you don't carry a machine gun in your car. :chillpill: :chillpill: :chillpill:

There is a thing in life known as other people's points of view. An example can be found in Post # 10. For your convenience, I repeat it >> "I'm just having a thread for my music. Anyone else can do the same (and should)", ...and as I said it has nothing to do with the universe and me, or whatever tangent you just went off on.

I think it's a nice idea, that's all :biggrin: Try it. You might like it.

Here's a blues number I came up with just from guitar doodling. Key of E. Simple, but I'm cool with it.

 
I have another video of myself on a Bluegrass guitar tune that I like very much >> Under the Double Eagle. Only thing is, I don't know the copyright status of it, so I don't know if it's OK to post it here or not.

If I can do it (legally), I will.

Isn't that just like a leftist liberal to think everything has to be communal ? Can't ever have anything be private, exclusively to oneself. Liberals don't seem to recognize how pathological that kind of thinking is.

If you think this posting by Pogo is bad, check out BLM's website, where they don't even want you having YOUR OWN CHILDREN be private to you, in your own home, Instead they recommend this >> "We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable."

THIS AIN'T YOUR MESSAGE BOARD, JOCKO. Get the fuck over yourself.

I, et al, don't need to see or hear, your warped, socialist everybody has to be included in everything mentality. Did I tell you that the mandolin I play is exclusively MINE ? AHHH! How outrageous that I might have it all to myself.

I also have another mandolin, a violin, 2 guitars, 2 harmonicas, and pennywhistle, and 1 limberjack. How selfish of me to not be sharing them with every other person in the world (liberals are internationalists, so we'll need to talk global)

I also have MY OWN apartment, MY OWN CAR, MY OWN CAT, and even OWN some private property in New York state - a house and 12 acres of land. Terrible huh ?

What's terrible is how you think that by starting a thread on somebody else's website you create your own personal fiefdom.

"somebody else's" ? You mean you respect somebody owning something ? I thought you would have seen this website as a public forum, for use by all users.
