[@TheFiddleChannel]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Judymontel]

Oooooo!! This is SO cool. What a tune! But I have to admit, I really, really, really want to swing it. Well, let's try to learn it straight. I'm so far from the institutions of proper fiddling traditions I might decide to some day swing it just for myself and no one the wiser... 🙂

Hi Judy. If you want to swing it, I won't tell on you!

[@Judymontel]

@@TheFiddleChannel Also - where in the tune does the solo come, and where do you go after it's played?

[@TheFiddleChannel]

@@Judymontel Good question! Listen to Johnny Gimble's version (it's on YT), and see what he does.

[@Judymontel]

@@TheFiddleChannel Oh wow - I needed to hear him play that - now I understand why you don't need to swing the tune, just for starters. He puts it in as a second A on the second time around, so it seems to work just fine with the regular A part chords.

Check out Ridge Roberts playing this at Weiser this year. It was nuts!

How about a lesson on Kenny Baker's "Washington County?"

[@TheFiddleChannel]

Yes, that's a good one!
