Thanks Richey think about it, this was a video made by a guy for Pete Seeger. Then someone else took the audio out of it, then I got it add a guitar some pics and its a video again. And the sound quality is not bad. Not bad coming from a video camera.

Fantastic - need to get these downloaded and listen to them in the shop :)

Thanks folks, like I say if you start with a great song you can only go down hill.

It is a fast moving song and I tried it on 3 string no go I also tried a short scale 4 string with a chop rhythm but it got muddy.

I have always like fiddle tune and folk song that no one know where they came from. Fife and drum songs from Europe were sang here during the revolutionary and civil wars hundreds of year after they were written. Check out this site if you like really old song tons of stuff here and a lot of war songs  .

Sounds great - good job!

Thanks everyone, this is about helping Silent help Mr. Morris put some music together. So I jumped at the chance, this is a great old tune which Mr. Morris is very good at and the heart of all American music. Hope to see more of this type of thing going on here as the possibilities are endless.

Nice Job !

That's fantastic RTZ. The Revenooers got all my money today but I still (no pun) enjoyed what you did with this!

Comment by Keith Rearick on April 15, 2014 at 10:36am

What a great duo, but RTZ should sing some too. When is the CD coming out?
