Sounds like shades of Half Shaved... is it the same tune by a different name?

Yeah, Ken, you're right, as always a smart fellow. Sure you're not from Smartsville? Wade Ward used the same tuning: eCGCD and it sure sounds the same. He was from Virginia. The Hammons were from West Virginia. I'll do some more research on this.

Or 'Hollyding'? They are really similar to my inexperienced ear and the way it repeats that little triple and resolves to the low C reminded me of it. But different. Janet, your playing is always so pleasant. Thanks for posting these.
