There are so many fiddle tunes that banjo players learn. Well, here's the reverse. Peachbottom Creek is the great Wade Ward banjo tune (f#DF#AD) that I adapted to fiddle (GDAE). My friend Bob Graff and I played this in the fiddle-banjo duet contest at the Henry Reed Festival in 2010. Thanks to Terry Reed who archived this (June 29, 2010) at the WNRV-AM (990) radio web site

Well, it isn't every day that you see a tune go from banjo to fiddle, instead of the other way around. And a fine job of work, too, it sounds like it came from the fiddle all along. Well done, Carl (and Bob)! I can't get enough of that D tuning.

Very, very nice, Carl, and a real inspiration for Dwight & me!
