I once possessed a long playing record album by Woody Guthrie and his sidekick Cisco Houston.Cisco sang this song with just a simple guitar background.I've forgotten a lot of other things,laugh,but not this song.
Thanks,Robin.I neglected to say that the tuning I used was Aaa, on a folkroots dulcimer strung for Dad with a deep body and long scale(28 inches)..I guess I've turned into a baritone without changing the strings.I like the "wobbly" nature of the wound D string tuned down to A ...
Really enjoyed this Jamie. Good to hear you singing!
Really love the low sound of the dulcimer. The tuning and melody sound almost weary, and it fits the performance perfectly.
I'm a big fan of the Aaa tuning and, usually, have one dulcimer in that tuning.
