Nice job, guys - you did it justice! This was the first time I heard this tune played on the banjo, and it was great. Thanks for posting this.

Thanks for adding this to the "favorites" thread. I like the pace and tempo you two play this. I wonder just how old this melody is; almost sounds medieval. Kind of scary! Is Clifford related to Garry Harrison?

Yep - Cliff is Garry's nephew. Glad you like the recording. This was "tune of the week" back in Sept. of 2010. Here's the link: banjohangout.org/topic/186184. Thanks for reaching out. - Sean
