1930's Triolian copy, medium Argentine strings, 1.5mm Andrea triangle pick. In the original key of C. This tune was originally recorded by the Mississippi string band Leake County Revelers, one of my favorites. Lead was done on fiddle, and they had a mandolin and banjo too, but they aren't very audible. I tried to emulate the fiddle slides, unisons, and shuffles with accents. I really don't sync up till the end.
