TOTW 11/7/2025 Briarpicker Brown from Buddy Thomas
This tune comes from fiddler Buddy Thomas (1934-1974) of Lewis County, Kentucky, who learned it from Ohio fiddler Morris Allen. Jeff Titon notes the A part's close similarity with the English dance tune The Rose Tree.

I can hear Buddy Thomas here and that means intricate picking. Good job! I haven't played The Rose Tree in a long time -- thanks for the reminder.
