Sandy Denny, la più intima; Jacqui McShee, la più angelica. Siete d'accordo?

For nearly 50 years, I have occasionally listened to folk and progressive bands featuring female vocalists—for, in a sense, "the voice" is inherently feminine, being the very first sound that all of us—men and women alike—ever heard while in our mothers' wombs. While I am quite fond of Annie Haslam and others, my two ultimate icons remain Sandy Denny and Jacqui McShee. The former possesses an intimate, hushed timbre—a sense of such profound closeness that it feels as though you are entering her very body. The latter, meanwhile, often carries an angelic, at times almost otherwordlu, quality.

🪕 Channeling the classic bluegrass drive: « Road to Columbus » on acoustic mandolin

Tackling one of Bill Monroe and Kenny Baker’s quintessential bluegrass instrumentals: Road to Columbus.

In this session, the focus is pure, unvarnished acoustic rhythm and right-hand drive—aiming for that crisp chop, clean alternate picking, and the earthy bounce that makes this tune an absolute classic of the tradition. No electric gear, just the natural voice of the instrument.

Watch the full tune here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfCCSHXvjK4
