Adam has won some awards for his clawhammer playing in big fiddle
festivals, and many folks comment on how they love his playing. His
playing is somewhat more subtle and delicate than a lot of current "power
house" type players. Maybe his style is just not your cup of
tea. "Melodically weak" can be a concept subject to different people's own
ideas and tastes.
