GUEST,guest mick clay pipe fiddle (11) clay pipe fiddle 14 Feb 04


My father told me that he once heard a fiddler play a slow air with a clay pipe wedged somehow between the bridge of the fiddle and the strings. He said it gave the air a sweet, haunting quality. This would have been about seventy years ago.
Does anyone know anything about this technique ?
