Our most requested song from our bluegrass gospel album is one penned by my sisters called, "No Power In The Water." It was one of two tunes on the record on which I played mandolin, but the only one I played a solo on. I've had LOTS of requests to teach the solo from the song, and I think I know why. One, it's HOT! Two, it's in B flat, and many mandolin pickers get a little apprehensive when tackling songs in that key. Even if you have no interest in learning the solo, check it out for some hot triplet licks in the key of B flat!

Anybody have a tip for the left hand stretch in here? My pinky is not cooperating.

The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.

Glad it clicked! That timing is the whole point of this lesson, so if that landed you got what you came for.
