Thread Name: creative output of folk fiddlers
Subject: RE: creative output of folk fiddlers
Yes, but there might be one even more catchy than Soldiers Joy: catchy, but never caught on. And all the wierdy ones in the Phrygian mode that dropped out because major key tunes became popular...but think how trendy they'd be now among the bright young things on the cover of Folk Roots. But I'd like some assistance with guessing. I'm not at all confident about 500,000 fiddlers and 10,0000 tunes that have come down to us.
