Whiskey Before Breakfast
Whiskey Before Breakfast is a beautiful little tune taught to Kent
by his good friend Micah Schonberg, and taught in turn
to Nicholas and Gabe...
Nicholas plays the viola da gamba on this one -- and it closely
echoes the sounds a gut-stringed fiddle might have made in Ireland
or in the Appalachian mountains a hundred or more years ago.
Before recording this tune, Nicholas asked Kent to think about
the title -- and groggily introduce the tune on the mandolin --
that is what you hear on the record.
