Hello Wally,
No, that's a different video on Mike's site titled Legendary Masters of the
Dobro Summit and produced in 1991.
The one I have(1985) is in a small studio, only 30 minutes long with these
musicians: Josh Graves, Jerry Douglas, Mike Auldridge, Marty Stuart, Vassar
Clements, Jake Tullock, Bob Fowler and Josh Graves, Jr. on bass.
Songs included: Fireball (twice) Steel Guitar Chimes, Kentucky, Cincinnati
Rag, Stomping at the Savoy, Flatt Lonesome, Seven Bridges Road, Mississippi
Country, and Ground Hog. Done by Central Sun Video of Reston, VA.
I recently picked up one of Mike Auldridge's lesson video's SL-1 which
contains Head over Heels, Wait a Minute, and Walk Don't Run. So far only
worked up Wait a Minute.
Does anyone else have SL-2 or SL-3?
Not sure of Dobro Summit is available on the internet anywhere though I
haven't looked.
Cheers,
Robert Duke
