The you tube version completed my curiosity about the sound. Why's the player wearing gloves? Seems like that would make the playing so much more difficult.<br />Nancy<br />Ladies of the groveNorth County Film Clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13683794164957833415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447020772809150478.post-58203592521074761312011-04-02T12:30:12.396-04:002011-04-02T12:30:12.396-04:00i like the musical touch.
