Genre: Old Time / Playing Style: Clawhammer and Old-Time
Don Couchie and I recorded this one evening at Clifftop last year, sitting around at our campsite. I didn't post it before this, because Don's elegant clawhammer picking, just perfect in person, didn't come through with enough volume on my little Tascam DR-1 for some reason. I have played with the levels a little bit to bring it out front more, and have uploaded it now for my contribution to the Tune of the Week for 4/9/10. I am playing in open D tuning on my Tubaphone; and I believe Don was in double C tuning capoed on 2, playing the metal rimmed banjo he borrowed from Reed Martin.

Don, thanks for posting this one. Your playing on this one is nothing short of sublme. It's an honor to be able to make music like this.
