I heard this fiddle tune at an Old Time Jam recently - loved it!

Now I want to learn it . . . :mandosmiley: Any suggestions?

Thanks

Butch Baldassari has it on the instructional tab book with performance CD called Appalachian Mandolin. Here:

Thanks to all! I never thought of YouTube - I'm really a Kompewter Fobe . . . ! But man, what a source for tunes!! I've "wasted" most of the morning away, sampling about 10 - 12 versions - in D (the key I want to play it in) and G, A, and even E flat (fretless gourd banjo guys seem to be very "outgoing" with key selections!!

Thanks for turning me on to YouTube as a tune source! :mandosmiley:
