Aunt Mary’s Hornpipe
Players: John White, fiddle; Amber Gaddy, accordion; David Cavins, guitar
Learned from the Old Time Fiddler’s Repertory, from a transcription from the playing of Vee Latty of Fulton, MO, and from hearing a fiddler named Charlie Dalton play it. This tune is played by other mid-Missouri fiddlers as well, but John’s unique bowing makes the high part a bit magical.
Included on the 2017 CD “A Little Further Down the Road.”
Bill Gray’s Dubuque
Players: Dwight Lamb & Nate Kemperman, fiddles; David Cavins, guitar.
Dwight Lamb teaches Nate Kemperman an unusual version of a common Midwestern tune, Dubuque. Dwight learned this version from the playing of his father, Clarence Lamb, but he mentions that it’s Bill Gray’s version–Bill Gray, a contemporary of Dwight’s father, was a well-known fiddler in the Loess Hills near Dwight’s boyhood home. Recorded at Dwight’s house in Onawa, Iowa, October 18, 2014.
