Fiddle player Terry Thacker and I, along with a few other old-time music insurgents, formed a small jamming cabal at a bluegrass festival in Kendallville, Ind., this past weekend where this was recorded. Terry is native of East Kentucky and knows a lot of good fiddle tunes from that region. This tune comes from Owen "Snake" Chapman.

Very nicely played, Dean. In old-time, perhaps as much as bluegrass, there is a growing temptation to make music which is ever more labyrinthian. It is good to be reminded that elegance is more likely to be simple than complex. It is always a great pleasure to hear a fine Eastern Kentucky tune, well rendered.
