    The number he was playing at the beginning was from around 1968… called Classical Gas. He played it really well.

    It was so wonderful listening to y'all play! Just beautiful! My Daddy, who passed away in 1999 at age 86, played the mandolin and harmonica. Though the mandolin's casing is slightly cracked, I still have it, and wouldn't take any amount of money for it! Still have the harmonica too, though the rust of time has made it silent. In my memories, I can still hear him play "Wildwood Flower," Wabash Cannonball," "Get Along Home, Cindy, Cindy," "When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder," and others! Thank you all! I'm glad I discovered your channel and I'm subscribing! God bless each and every one of you and yours!

    Hmmm. Interesting. Two versions of "Soldier's Joy", which presumably crossed the Atlantic with British fiddlers (since it's still a very well known standard dance tune over here) and Arkansas Traveller" - sorry, "traveler". I like the fact that the lady on the extreme right is having a go, despite the fact that both tunes are obviously new to her. Excellent. That's the best way of acquiring a repertoire, if you are going to play in sessions regularly. In the past, I have always encouraged new session players to do exactly the same. After all, that's how I learned. Not sure how an Arkansas tune managed to get into the Appalachian canon, but never mind, it's still a good standard much used melody, and goes with a swing if you are all playing it, especially with plenty of fiddles.
