Nice playing Randy. I always have trouble with The Eighth of January, the fiddle tune on which the Battle of New Orleans was based. Jimmy Driftwood composed the words to the song which was recorded by Johnny Horton in 1959. The tune is based on the Eighth of January and the date on which the battle was fought. Here is a link to a slightly different version of song, also from 1959.

That is so ticklish on the ears(meaning I like it).My forebears were in that war and the one before it,on the other side.Music crosses borders better than armies.Johnny Horton's "Battle of New Orleans",(by way of Jimmy Driftwood) was a huge hit in Canada.
