So this short blast came out of the blue, resulting from an earlier discussion (The Trill Is Gone??). Everybody was confused about the trill in the Green Converse Book of 1865. It was said that Ayers played it on his tape some time ago, and I just recently heard it. This is what it sounds like he did. I used a 32nd note triplet, played fingerstyle on strings 3, 2, and 1 on a unison "B". Not what the tune called for, but a nice effect none the less. If anybody goes to his grave (Converse) in June, don't tell him we're screwing it up.

Well that counts me out - I can't make that 3rd string stretch

My thinking exactly (for me anyway) - but when done right it sounds really cool because it's so unexpected
