24 Sep 00 - 08:51 AM (#304325) Subject: Red Haired Boy From: Little Neophyte I am currently learning to play Red Haired Boy. I was just wondering if anyone could suggest some artists who have recorded Red Haired Boy so I can listen to different versions of this tune. Thanks, Bonnie |

I was certainly suprised at how effective the search would be and how many versions of the tune you would be able to hear on MP3 back to back. Just the job......... |

25 Sep 00 - 01:33 AM (#304856) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Red Haired Boy From: Margo Bonnie, I'm curious. I play a clawhammer arrangement of Red Haired Boy by Ken Perlman (whose method book I'm using). Are you playing clawhammer? Also, the melody of Red Haired Boy is a song: the Little Beggarman which can be found here in the digitrad. So if you sing, you'll have a song you can do once you learn to play it! Have fun, Margo |

25 Sep 00 - 11:20 PM (#305518) Subject: RE: Tune Req: Red Haired Boy From: GUEST,Terry I played it on a compilation project of amateur home recording enthusiasts, all of whom use minidisc multitrackers. I played the fiddle, mandolin, guitar, and bass (not necessarily well!) in a medley of Salt Creek and Red-Haired Boy. Those minidisc guys, most of whom play techno-stuff and have never heard old-time fiddle tunes, were stunned. The URL is here: http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/62/mtmd_exchange.html Terry |
