A friend had a CD of music played by people in,I think ,East Anglia in the 20s or 30s----Tunes like Redwing Polka were played on homemade instruments,the players not being able to buy "proper" ones.They included fiddles,hammered dulcimers,and snare-drums,if my memory serves me , and quite a decent sound they made,too, I have to say.
