Update for Issue 5: Andy Volk
Andy Volk wrote about Bill Tapia and reviewed Clapton’s Guitar: Watching Wayne Henderson Build the Perfect Instrument and Guitar: An American Life in our fifth issue. It turns out he’s also a filmmaker and he recently completed filming mandolinist John McGann for an instructional DVD. It’s titled, reasonably enough, John McGann’s Rhythm Mandolin: From Bluegrass to Celtic to Swing. I got a chance to see and it’s excellent. Even if Andy weren’t one of my writers I would recommend it for mandolin players who want to hone their rhythm chops. -MJS
