Poullard Special, catchy tune

[Mike t.]

A tune that has a driving rhythm that’s hard for me copy with the PA anyone else tried it?

Cool tune, thanks Mike! I haven’t tried it but seems like this style is just made for the diatonic. Oh look, there’s the triangle guy playing 3 notes!

Working in a machine shop years ago we were delivered some wrong sized 1” dia. 4140 turned ground and polished shafting. The owner said to get rid of it so no accidental mistakes could come from it being undersized. I made about three “dinner bell” triangles from 3’ lengths, I still have mine… just waiting all these years for some lessons. Some day… just saying

That’s cool Mike, you can do it! I played percussion in school. Just watch the guy in the video. It’s mostly about the rhythm. You can get a different sound by hitting different parts. The top hand is to control the length of a beat, like when you stop the bellows. You can combine these to make a groove. Good luck!
