Doctor Hecock's Jig

I always think of this tune as like 1800s jazz.  Keep up the good work Sonny!   :)

I do too, Strumelia...Thanks!

Sorry, typo error....that's Bob Lanham.

Wes Merchant posted a link to two players, James Bryan and Carl Jones, playing Dr. Hecock's, on guitar and fiddle. They blew it away! I haven't heard any other fiddler versions. They played Kick up the Devil, too. Excellent!

Good job Sonny! Great tune. Vincent Tufo does a great fiddle version on the Early Minstrel Show recording.

Thanks, guys! It's still fun to try to make musical sense out of the fiddle tunes on a fretless banjo.

Such a tripped out tune. Sounds good!
