Description
Hillbilly recordings from the 1920s-1930s, field recordings from the late 1930s to the present, and records from recent decades of “Old Timey” music, contest fiddling, and bluegrass performances provide numerous examples of this popular traditional tune.
This tune makes great use of the C major scale in the open position.
