My OT Fingerstyle arrangement of this great tune. First two parts very loosely based on a recording I heard a long time back of Maggie Hammons. Download to hear at proper speed.

This is surprisingly charming! Was it a mistake that sounded so interesting you let it be? Are you aware it's being heard at about three times normal speed and several octaves above pitch? It;s like hummingbirds on fiddle and banjo. Or maybe chipmunks?

John, I like your version of this tune. I am working on a putting together a version based on Tommy Jarrell's recording. I also have a track from Bruce Molsky that I like as well. The B part has been giving me trouble so I though I would look around to see what other have done.
What Key are you in?
Mike
