Boil them hawks and eagles down. Hawks and eagles is a variation on the cabbage tune. And always fun to play... Bob.
Hi Patty. Thanks a lot. I don't have a tab for it. I video my teacher doing a new tune. I normally write it out from there and then learn it. This time I just learned from watching his video.
Thanks everyone. John P, it's an old time fiddle tune. My dulcimer teacher is also a fiddle player, so I tend to get a lot of fiddle tunes from him! It needs a bit more work, but is a fun tune. Of course, probably like many others, I can do a better job when I'm not recording!
Nice job. H&E is one of my favorite tunes. It exemplifies the simplicity of old time and the excitement that makes you want to get up and dance. Anybody interested in this tune should look up fiddler Norman Edmonds... Bob.

Dan, it's actually not too hard to learn. The first part is on the melody string, the second part is on the middle string and the last part is on the bass string.
Thanks, Lexie. I appreciate you listening.
Sounds really good Gail, Thanks for playing for us.
Thanks Helen!
Thanks Bob and Terry. It's a fun one for sure.

Thanks Cindy and Randy. Yes, Randy, I am lucky to be able to take lessons from Joe Shelton. I've learned many good tunes from him!
This sounds great Gail!!! Love the slides!!!
I like it Gail....and you have a good teacher!

Gail, I like this a lot!!! You did a fine job. Is there tab for this?

Nicely done!
That was wonderful, Gail!
Hi Gail,
Enjoyed that very much
Not a tune I remember hearing before, but it sounds familiar from somewhere and I had no trouble picking it up. Where am I likely to have heard it ?
If you're playing N/D it will fit entirely on the melody string by playing in Ionian(DAA). Starts on the 10th fret, instead of the 7th fret in DAd.
Thank you, Gail.
Dan, I'm playing in DAd.
What tuning are you using, Gail?
Dan, it's actually not too hard to learn. The first part is on the melody string, the second part is on the middle string and the last part is on the bass string.
OK, Gail. I'll watch multiple times and try 'reading' your hands. Your video looks clear enough to do that. Thanks.
