A reload for Virtual Fiddle Fest 2014, thanks Doug ;-) Twin fiddle because I felt like it. Sorry if I didn't get the tracks lined up quite right. Also, it appears to be pretty loud.

Learned from the playing of Howard Rains. Howard's source is Mike Seeger who learned it from a recording of Louis Propps made by Alan Lomax (1936) in Pleasanton, Texas. A sorrowful sounding crooked waltz.

Tune I wrote at a rock on a river bluff that Native Americans used to mark the winter and summer solstices by indicating where the sun will shine into the bluff as it sets. Learn it, play it and pass it on. I will upload notes and TAB if anyone needs/wants them.

Not sure where I learned it. Heard it a bunch, (Red Fox Chasers, Skillet Lickers, John Patterson, John Morris, ...) then worked it out from memory. Fun tune with a bunch of names, including, Hop Light Ladies, Did you (or "have you") Ever See the Devil Uncle Joe, Uncle Joe, Miss McCloud's Reel. Please excuse the mushiness of the first couple of bars. Something about pushing my own "record" button really throws things off for a moment.

I learned this from "the notes" in an old Fiddler Magazine I had lying around. Don't really play much in the way of waltzes. Hope you can get through the scratchiness.
