For the old-time Tune of the Week, 5/18/18, this tune was learned by a young Luther Davis (1889 - 1986) from his neighbors Isom and Fielden Rector of Dalhart, VA near Galax). Luther said he didn't like it, but learned it out of respect for his older mentors.

Well Luther may not have liked it, but I do. That’s a fun little tune, and nicely played!

Ha ha! Thanks, Greg. This was easy to learn. The chalk would be the improvisation, which you excel at.
