@ABitRusty, @ELCBK, and @Mark - Your kind words are appreciated, though I hear many things wrong when I listen to it. I think I was too much in a hurry to get back to The Traveler!

I started singing it 40 years ago after hearing the Happy Goodman family sing it.

I have never tried to play it on the fiddle till two days ago, I was trying to come up with a song and I remembered it, so I pick it out, still ruff but it's a good old song.

Never heard that one Mark, that vibrato is lovely, as is the playing. Great feeling put into that, which is something I lack.

Thanks for joining in.

@Mark  I’m not sure how I missed this when you posted it—beautiful playing! Nice that you've taken a lovely tune from a memory & adapted it to the violin--that there is music-making! smile
