Redwing on mountain dulcimer

Dusty Turtle » Videos » Redwing on mountain dulcimer

musician/member name: Dusty T
Duration: 00:01:20
description:
This traditional fiddle tune was used by Woody Guthrie as the melody for "Union Maid." My version here owes a lot to another dulcimer version by R.N. Lackey. I am playing a Modern Mountain Dulcimer made of Lacewood and tuned DAd.

Steve, Sam, Rob, and Terry, thanks for listening.

And Rob, I just listened again to your version and realize how many interesting chords I cut out. I'll have to keep working on this one.

 Thanks so much, Steven, Robin, and Gail.  Robin started a thread on this tune in the Call the Tune Group . You might check that out for other versions of the tune, including Robin's duet with her fella.

Way cool, Dusty!  Your play is precise, clean.  That Modern Mountain Dulcimer really shines on this, too!
