JC's Tune finder has Sherwood Rangers but I don't think that is it. The World Wide Abc Index won't finish loading for me today, so I don't know if it is there or not.

If you are from the Stone county area or come to this area from time to time you could also contact Fate's grandson who learned most of the tunes, if not all, that Fate played. You could probably get information on how to contact him from Dale.

OK, Fiddler434, I can't even make a good guess as to who you might be, but from some of the requests you have made, I figure you are probably from somewhere in the Mountain View, AR area.

I don't normally look at it with any regularity, but if you will write to my hotmail account, [e-mail], and identify yourself, I will see if I can do something for you as far as hearing it is concerned, though I can't promise.   Fate recorded this at least five times that I am aware of.   I don't know that anyone has ever made a midi of it though.

Alternately, it is also featured on an excellent album, Call Your Dogs by Jim and Kim Lansford of Southern Missouri. I don't know of any other recordings at the moment. I see that Camsco carries some of the Lansfords' music, so I suspect that Dick could get that one, too. If not, then I think you can likely get it from the Lansfords at:   Jim & Kim Lansford, 521 First Street, Galena, MO 65656

I would love to find a midi for the old time fiddle tune "Sherwood". It is by Fate Morrison, Fox, AR.
