As close as I can get to the version on RS "Solo" album. (Both A and B parts have 10 measures.)

Sorry about the snake charmer bit. I was re-living my cartoon watching days.

A clawhammer interpretation of Mike Seeger's setting of George Lander's tune. Actually, this is more closely related to Jason Romero's version on the Haints' "Shout Mona." fCFCD tuning on the 12" Ramsey, rolled brass tone ring.

Inspired by a discussion in Tune of the Week, Feb 5, 2010. I always knew this as Down in the Salley Garden. "Salley" is an Irish word for willow (from latin). In that version, lyrics by William Butler Yeats, the tune is a lament. I like the uptempo versions, especially when Willow Garden's murder-ballad lyrics are sung; the mood of those lyrics at a spirited tempo create an odd tension. I'm not singing here.

From a hidden track on John Cohen's Stories the Crow Told Me. Thanks to GailG64 for helping me identify this tune and pointing to the Taylor's Kentucky Boys' version.

A copy of Cathy Moore's idea to switch to the minor key just to mix things up. I always thought the "sawyer" in the title identified a worker in a sawmill, That's why I called it ...Sawyer...Miner (two occupations). But in the TOTW of 4/13/12 I learned it was what riverboatmen called a log snag in the river that bobbed up and down like a saw blade. Too late to change the title.

A clawhammer version of Jim Reed's original. See jimh269b's music page for the vastly superior, 3-finger original. I just liked this tune so much when Jim posted it that I was determined to try it clawhammer style. On the Romero with Nylguts tuned to Jim's recording, which is roughly fCFBbC.
