Thanks Swing, E.J. and I learned that tune from West Texas fiddler Pal Stevens while we were attending a contest in Ruidoso, N.M. I met Frankie Kelly some time later and enjoyed playing it with him as well. The song has words and two of Frankie's daughters recorded it on one of his an LP's.

I played with Pal a good bit before he passed away.

Ritchey - I'll bet you enjoyed playing with Pal. That little rascal was a good swing player. Also, glad to hear that Tommy is still a kickin. Tommy and Elsie were big supporters of the TOTFA back in the seventies and eighties. I have fond memories of time spent with them.
