Key of A or G. Two parts but first (high) part is half as long. Fiddle can tune AEAE. There are several variants but we like to end both parts with the same tag.
Links - Rayna Gellert and John Herrmann [utoob] Key of G.
- Twin fiddles [utoob] by Jon Bekoff & Nate Paine but you can't see either one.
- Earl Collins old recording [utoob non-video]. Key of A.
- Bruce Molsky sings [amazon clip].
- Can Kickers [bandcamp] Cajun, singing, washboard. Key of A.
- John Hartford solo TV [utoob] sings Wolves Howling at the end of a medley.
- Four old recordings under Milliner-Koken [Slippery Hill]: John Brown, Stripling Brothers, Earl Collins, Ernest Claunch.
- Stripling Brothers [utoob non-video] old recording.
Notes - This song has lyrics.
- We heard this first at Clifftop 2015.
- Thanks, Rolan, for further research. This tune is similar to, or the same as, Pretty Polly Ann [Ernie Stubbs]. Pretty Polly Ann is very similar to, or the same as, Polly Ann [Arthur Smith mp3 at Slippery Hill]. However, Pretty Polly Ann is not at all similar to Pretty Polly or Polly Put the Kettle On.
