The link to Wilson's film company is above. Go there and watch the preview. I guarantee you will order it.

Re: Re: Re: Re: Additional Instructional CD's

Guys, thanks for all the help and the links. I will be ordering both the Marc and the Wilson Savoy CD's. Ron, wish I had the time to go to a workshop, but regular work gets in the way. Have you travelled all the way from Holland to attend a LA workshop? Man, just traveling 400 miles from TX to LA to attend a session seems like a long way to go. Don't get out much. Momma won't let me loose, she knows I would go every chance I could get. Also frankly I would be embarrased to have some 8 year old little boy play rings around me. I am sure they are out there.

It's one of my wishes to go to Louisiana.
I have taken lessons from a very good Dutch player.
And now I have to do it all by myself and other players who do their best.
But I know from players who did, a workshop is very helpfull.
There's also a book of Allie Young with a tape or CD.
It's old, traditional and very good.
I have learn a lot of the tapes of Dirk Powell.

take a look at link 1 and 2.

are there any players in your area JB? if so, try to get in touch.
Maybe you know a player who can record some slowed down tunes and send them to you.

Cool!! Great Playing! I guess the Dutch can use their fingers for more things than plugging up holes in the d-ke. The extra careful censor will not let me spell the earth and stone enginering marvel that the Dutch have used for centuries to reclaim land from the sea, so have to go with di-ke. Is that guy's name Bas van der Poll? Has a good voice, as well. Thanks for the link.
