Marc Bernier -- I'm from Silver Spring, Maryland. It wasn't so much an F&D forum as an aprés performance party. We had sung our little hearts out in Chestertown, Maryland. Afterwards there was a dance, bar-b-queue, jam session at someone-or-others home nearby and that's where I heard it and first came into contact with "Ancient Drummers." (I'm still not quite clear what they are all about, but they are a happy bunch of cigar chomping, beer drinking musicians and <$deity$> knows there's never enough of THEM to go around.) There were quite a few F&D musicians. I had to sit off a little ways so I could converse with people. That was okay, though. It was a beautiful day on the eastern shore and you couldn't beat the fellowship.
doc.tom -- Yeah, there certainly are a number of versions floating around. The version I heard is pretty much like this one <http://www.mudcat.org/media/WHIPJAMB.MID>.
