THE MAN WITH THE MANDOLIN
Dave Apollon
The Man with the Mandolin is a double CD set featuring the complete recordings (from 1930 to 1956) of the late, great Dave Apollon. Mandolin fans of all genres will rejoice in over two hours of his music (19 of the 51 cuts on this epic project are previously unissued) packaged with a 20-page pdf booklet of historical photos and text written by producer David Grisman.
Apollon was the first "new world" mandolinist — the first to adapt virtuosic technique to all styles of music. "His unique style has influenced and inspired mandolinists from all musical walks of life," says Grisman, "and the excellence of his playing and the diversity of his repertoire established new standards for mandolinists that inspire us to this day." The repertoire ranges from popular tunes like “Smoke Gets in Your Eyes” and “Stardust” to light classics such as Liszt’s “2nd Hungarian Rhapsody” and Monti’s “Czardas,” as well as some previously unissued privately-made recordings. Mastered utilizing the No-Noise” process by Sonic Solutions, this collection of rare classic recordings is a must for all lovers of mandolin music.
*When I asked Jethro Burns who was the greatest mandolin player he ever heard, he answered without hesitation, ‘Dave Apollon’. Happily, this compilation puts back in circulation the rare recordings of a mandolin genius in his prime.” — David Grisman
