Wow! The internet is fascinating. I was looking for plans or blueprints for an F5 style mandolin, because I'm planning on building one, and I found some videos on YouTube about a luthier (=instrument maker) John Sullivan who builds all sorts of string instruments, but gained particular fame with his mandolins. In this series of 3 videos, a man is playing John Sullivan's instruments, and that man appeared to be Greg Clarke, bluegrass musician.
I started corresponding with Greg, and generously he sent me his cd "Solo", with 15 old style bluegrass songs on fiddle, guitar, mandolin and fretless banjo. So hereby a blog on Greg Clarke; thank you so much for sending us your music, and thanks for your compliments; Greg finds our music "hard driving stuff"! How about that!
