A prototypical french-canadian Grondeuse (Grumbler tune) in ADAE tuning. Learned from Erskine Morris (1913-1997) of Douglastown, Quebec on the Gaspé Coast. http://gaspefiddle.blogspot.com/2010/11/untitled-grondeuse-old-grumbler.html

This is a really great recreation of Erskin's sound ... you're sounding more like him all the time Glenn .... I remember this tune and play my own convoluted version from my memory - mine doesn't quite capture the subtle Erskin bow rockings like yours does..... Ive always felt that this tune ( or tune of this family) was a tune that long ago travelled down to the southern USA ( by French fur traders ? ) and became the tune " Granny Does Your Dog Bite " down here....really nice job
