Notes
Bask in the glory of Uncle Bunt Stephens! This is an absolute classic fiddle tune which teaches players the spirit of the old-time pulse. This tune personally unlocked a lot of the old-time bowing patterns in my playing. I use this tune as a warm-up and exercise in bowing. Welcome to your first “Hillbilly Trance” song.
While the structure of the song is just a drone of the root note and some pentonic action, it is very possible to sprinkle in IV and V chords where you feel. Do not let the simple structure limit you. Just about anything sounds good on this tune!
