Here's an old fiddle tune off of the Picking Around the Cookstove album on the Rounder label. This was a fun album for everyone involved. Rounder had a portable studio set up in Dick Staber's barn where his wife Renny made pottery. We moved all of her pottery and the kiln out of the way then sectioned a room off with a bunch of quilts strung on a rope from one side to the other.

This is a tune I wrote and recorded on Bluestone's Solataire CD Album. I wish I would have re-done it better, but finances and time prevented it.

This is a tune I composed about 20 years ago. I did this on a 4-track Yamaha cassette recorder/player and dubbed the other instruments. A little rough, but I wanted to record so I wouldn't forget it.

I heard F&S do this live and also The Country Gentlemen. Talk about hard driving bluegrass, man this one you can really lay the thumb to.

Another good Jake Landers tune. This was recorded with my group Bluestone. A slow tune with backup that I sing baritone on. Hope you like.

One song from a gig I played back in 1979. The whole day was so much fun, and is still saved on a CD I burnt. I booked the job and through the band together, Danny Paisley, Ronnie McCoury, Jon Glik, Earl Yager.
