Sweet! Another bow video from Clarky. It's a good tune and a good lesson.

Thanks Uncle J. Ooh I like that song, didn't consider playing it though, thanks for the suggestion.

Low down and powerful.  Man, that sounds right.  I liked the part about tuning down by ear to match the record.  I didn't start playing until internet days, but my friends talk about the old days of using the record player and needle over and over to hear and 'get' parts of a song.

Clarky, try "In The Pines"  on your diddley.
