Here's my run at it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUOlD-Nv2fQ
I guess mine falls more on the crooked side since that's what I had heard until that point, but I think that there's comfort in knowing there's one that sticks closer to the path. Curious to see what my buddy Josh has on it for fiddle when we get together later this week. ________________________________ From: kathy nichols <kathymnich...@gmail.com> To: taterbugmando@googlegroups.com Sent: Mon, December 6, 2010 6:31:57 PM Subject: Re: Song of the Month-December 2010 Thank you for bring this up. I wondered if I was the only one confused by the difference between the mp3, the youtube, and the tab. I went to a jam this weekend and asked an old time fiddler there if he knew Hatcher's version of Grub Springs. He promptly played the straight version of the tune found on most of the other youtube videos. He has played around Michigan for many years, just never heard the crooked version but thought the one he played was Hatcher's version. I find working on one measure at a time is helping some. Still confused about which fingers to use on the slides, especially in the 7th measure. Interesting spelling for the blogger's first name Daevid.............kinda crooked.
