From the fiddling of West Virginia Melvin Wine, Eadle Alley remains a mystery as far as a real place. Playing his tunes is always an experience with a squared off, traditional fiddle tune that make good square and contra dance music.โดย JanetB

Price Bane Waltz (TOTW)

28d ago

—

As played by West Virginia fiddler, Israel Welch, related to Noah Cline, who gives a fine history of the tune Price Bane Waltz on the Tune of the Week for 8/29/24. It's a pretty little waltz and was easier to play than I anticipated.โดย JanetB

Head of the Creek (Ward Jarvis) (TOTW)

1M ago

—

Here's a tune from West Virginia with interesting timing. It has a bridge and also ends a half measure early if you repeat it, so you jump right into the water, rather the A part.โดย JanetB

Old Bob (TOTW)

1M ago

—

From the playing of Bruce Greene via Kentucky fiddler Gusty Wallace. The measure count is very unusual, but it's a neat tune. Bruce Greene has found good crooked tunes, many probably from Kentucky. Check out his Five Miles from Ellum Wood CD.โดย JanetB

Lost Girl (Walter McNew and John Salyer versions)

2M ago

—

Tune of the Week explores Lost Girl. I've focussed on the Kentucky fiddler John Salyer version, but didn't include the Walter McNew version in the thread yet. In this mp3 you first hear McNew's version, then Salyer's as learned from Adam Hurt's piano playing.โดย JanetB

Played according to the tab in John Burke's Book of Old Time Fiddle Tunes for Banjo.On YouTube the fiddlers play it on a much faster pace than I do.โดย Kyle Creed

The Cat Rambles to the Child's Saucepan

An Irish "traditional slide", meaning it's kind of like a jig, but it's not. I'm always learning something on the Tune of the Week. :)โดย JanetB

Quick recording with my Zoom H2n handy recorder. I'm at home with a bad flu, so I'm a little congested. Recorded with my Gold Tone WL-250 in Sawmill tuning (gDGCD).โดย stanley_

Be Kind To A Man When He's Down

2M ago

—

This arrangement was very heavily inspired by Simon Robinson's version of this song. Recorded with my Zoom H2n field mic at my workplace courtyard (so I had to be relatively quiet) next to a fountain. Tuned down from G-Standard (relative) on my Recording King RKO-3S customized with nylon strings, fiberskyn head, and stuffed with two cotton shirts.…

Sallie Cooper (TOTW)

3M ago

—

As played by Kentucky fiddler John Salyer, it's good to have yet another one of his unique tunes. The A part is rather plain, but the B part has character. If Sallie Cooper was that kind of person, I think I would have liked her.โดย JanetB

Shady Grove

The lyrics are based on Doc Watson's recording. Recorded on my Gold Tone AC-12a tuned a whole step up from Sawmill (aEADE). Recorded in one take with one microphone. This arrangement is not based heavily on any existing tab.โดย stanley_

Saturday, October 21,2023Last Sunday, as I was preparing to sing with the youth at Gwynedd Friends Meeting, I asked the teacher what the lesson was for today. He told me that they were going to learn about Indigenous People's Day. I looked through the list of songs that I'd been singing with them, for the past 30 years or so and thought, that of al…

Soapsuds Over the Fence (TOTW)

4M ago

—

From the fiddling of Alabama fiddler James Bryan in 1983, he learned from Mack Blalock, a Georgia fiddler, and the tune is older yet. I tuned to an open C tuning, something only done occasionally, so it changed the fingering from the better-known ways.โดย JanetB

A tune I wrote and decided should be named after my wife, as a reward for putting up with my banjo playing!โดย gentrixuk

Lucy Farr (1911-2003) was Irish, but lived in England. She played the tune in the key of D, but here in jam sessions it's being played in the key of G. Lucy recorded an album at the age of 80!โดย JanetB

Grey-Haired Dancin' Gal

4M ago

—

Thanks to Brendan Doyle for uploading the source recording for this week's Tune of the Week, Grey-Haired Dancin' Gal. I gave the tune another try. This version has a more Cajun swing flavor than the one I learned from, and Brendan shared with us the composer's background, so I thought it was worth another try. It's played slowly here and wants to b…

Grey Haired Dancing Girl (TOTW)

5M ago

—

Learned from the fiddling of Mark Tamsula, a fiddler I respect a lot. Grey Haired Dancing Girl, however, is not one Mark learned from the collections of Pennsylvania's Samuel Bayard. The original source of the tune is still a mystery, but a 1990's jam in Maryland was Mark's source.โดย JanetB

Bibb County Hoedown (TOTW)

5M ago

The source recording is from a 1930 recording of Seven Foot Dilly and His Dill Pickles. I learned from a modern recording of the Old Yeller Dog Band because I liked how the fiddle filled in the held notes.โดย JanetB

Red Fox

Here's a Henry Reed version of Red Fox, recorded in the enormous collection of this West Virginia fiddler by the great Alan Jabbour. I went to gCGCE tuning for ease of playing down the neck.โดย JanetB

Whistling Rufus (TOTW)

6M ago

—

A Tune of the Week written in the late 1800's, considered a ragtime or tin pan alley tune. It's a tough one to play, especially having just learned it today, but it was also an unusual tune to figure out.โดย Kerry Mills

What I worked out in gEADE tuning for playing clawhammer with piano at a contra dance. (it's for a dancing, so it's fairly long)From a couple of years ago, first dance from long break of Covid. Was a bit rough.โดย banjoak

Last of Sizemore (Hiram Stamper)(TOTW)

6M ago

—

Old Kentucky crooked fiddle tunes are intriguing and Hiram Stamper is an authentic learning resource in my book. Bruce Greene recorded this one and it was tricky to arrange. I got some help listening to George Jackson, the New Zealander old-time player that's a pleasure to hear.โดย JanetB

Old Abbott (TOTW)

6M ago

—

From the playing of an Alabama fiddler, Paisley Hagood. Mostly he plays ABAB, which is kind of a treat after always playing AABBAABB. The high note in the A part gives it an ancient tone feeling for me.โดย JanetB
