In a listening mood today If I were to meet someone who'd never heard slack key I would pull up this video and say no more. This song, to my ears, is perfect. Mozart would weep with joy and envy.

That's a mighty generous comment, but I certainly agree that this is a lovely song and that Ledward finds the most enchanting ways to play it. I'm so lucky to be able to play alongside Led and capture some of his magic to share. Fran

Oh yeah, I've been playing alongside Led a little over 10 years now and he still comes up with a stream of surprises. I've always considered myself to be a lucky guy but sitting next to Led when he plays is peak luck and max fun. Fran

Hats off to you two gentleman for building an excellent treasury of slack key instrumentals for future generations to remember and enjoy. First it was Led and Boz, now it's Fran and Led. Could kick myself for not knowing about slack key when I was at Pearl. Many happy days fellas and thanks again for putting this out here for us.

The Hawaiians in pre-contact days did a lot of aquaculture. They took advantage of existing water features, then constructed gates so they could manage stocking, growing, and harvesting fish. Post contact agriculture diverted the fresh water sources, leading to the loss of many of these water features, then in the 50s and 60s developers resculpted these damaged areas into lakes and such. The lake in this picture connects to the Pacific at Kailua Beach Park. Fran

@franguidry Ай бұрын
I have learned that using omni mics really reduces the sensitivity to wind compared to directional mics. I'm lucky enough to have a pair of Shure KSM141 mics that can be switched between cardioid and omnidirectional, so I use the omni setting for these outdoor clips. Fran
