Special thanks to Mojave Audio.
Memories of my Dad playing this my whole life. Love you and miss you Dad, Rest In Peace 😢♥️⭐️🎵🎶🎵
The Joy of Fiddling channel has gotten more than a few comments with the same sentiment as yours, @Kattra Kee: these tunes played on this instrument associated with family members who have passed on. It is a testament to the power of music that it can evoke so many emotions and memories, often times bittersweet.
@@joyoffiddling 😢😭😫⭐️
Thank you 🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎻🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵
I've just discovered this... This is the BEST version of Ragtime Annie I've ever heard !!! Congratulations to the whole band. A listener from Montréal Québec Canada
Greetings, MQC! Always nice to hear from our fiddle family friends from the north. The Joy of Fiddling channel tends to shy away from words like "best" in favor of words like "favorite". Daniel is one of my all time favorite fiddlers and his performance of this tune is definitely one of my faves.
I keep watching this video and every time it makes me grin from ear to ear and my heart just wants to sing. Are these people aware how much the joy they give or the effect they have on people, well I'm telling you now it's huge and the pleasure is immeasurable. Please keep it going it makes the world a much better place
Nice to hear that, Kiki. Glad you found us. That's what making music is all about. I can assure you the folks in these videos were just enjoying themselves in the moment and not giving a second thought that a camera was present or who might see the video or what anyone's reaction to the video might be. I did forward your comment along to Daniel's (the fiddler) wife (also a fiddler) who plays piano in some of these videos, and she said it made her day.
Great admiration for these guys!
The more I hear this tune , I love it more 😂
Virtuosity. Great! My teacher Dick Crawford. You are awesome 👌
A joy to the heart and soul, ears and eyes.Word's can't express the feeling one get's watching a true master.
Agreed, kiki-monuko. And I think Daniel is worthy of that category.
Very good rendition
One of my favorite fiddlers....ever. Listen to those variations!
BRAVO!
One of my favorite fiddlers...one of my favorite people. A good friend and true gentleman.
Absolutely phenomenal!!
These guys sitting around playing like this reminds me of my childhood. My Dad, brothers, uncles, and Mom used to do this a lot. Sigh.
@Patricia Slocum, you are not alone. You might be surprised how many folks express similar sentiments to yours here on the Joy of Fiddling channel. It illustrates what an enduring tradition fiddling, picking, and plucking remains. Music can trigger potent memories, both happy and sad. I hope these videos bring you more of the former and less of the latter.
Happy to hear the B part also.
keep up the good talent that life gave you ..and work for it Daniel.and the boys.. and the girl..Yvon
Everytime a pleasure to listen👌🏼
I wish I was a fiddle player...great for the end of a day at work. :) Just makes you want to dance.
Never too late, Beefire. Every fiddle tune you learn is a friend for life.
Thank you! I guess the biggest step is getting started, right?
That's it, Beefire. Ain't nothin' to do but to do it. One foot in front of the other. If you just want to dip your toe in the water first, consider renting or borrowing an instrument before making a big purchase. Take a few lessons...get a handle on some basic proper technique...learn a tune...and see how it suits you. And even before all that, it would be worth it to reach out to the folks in the old-time music/fiddling community in your area. Hang out at a jam session...listen...observe...and see if the fiddle bug doesn't bite you.
An amazing display of fiddle virtuosity! My violin teacher is always amazed at what fiddler's can do with improvisation on a basic tune often on the spur of the moment.
Always nice to hear someone in the classical world acknowledge fiddling. In some circles there's always been a rivalry between fiddlers and violinists...and unfortunate prejudices on both sides. Back in the day my mom (and others) were told they would never be fiddlers simply because they could read sheet music. These days it's become more common, especially with these young musicians, to have one foot in the violin world and one foot in the fiddle world, and they are benefited by both. They travel back and forth stylistically with ease.
Great to hear! Beautifully done! ❤️🇨🇦❤️
Amazing performance. Watched many times from Montreal Canada
Greetings Montreal Canada! Honored to have you visit the Joy of Fiddling channel. (Hoping you've already seen the "Red Bluff Session" videos on this channel featuring Canadian fiddling and picking legends Calvin Vollrath and Clinton Pelletier. All 11 videos can be found in this Playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PL-7sGqQweHSiVD-VZO7xI_zEqz4Wsq0iw.html)
As for Daniel's "Ragtime Annie", I have seen it many times myself and I'm always hearing a new lick that I didn't catch before.
Thanks for sending!!!
Love this! That was our Fiddler groups sign off piece. Boy i miss them!
Sounds like a great tune to end a group session to me, @LK. Also, sounds like you need to find some fiddlers, pickers, and pluckers to hang with. Covid has kept us apart for a long time now, but as things begin to normalize, hopefully you can reconnect with the fiddle family. Best of luck to you.
boy that fiddle player is smooth. not jerky. his music flows.....
Agreed, Dufus. Not all fiddlers put a premium on smoothness and tone, but Daniel does as is evident in his playing. And Daniel would not hesitate to give credit to the rhythm section. If your back up doesn't have flow, then your fiddling won't either.
It's folk music, not bluegrass
Bluegrass has a jerk to it because that's how it's supposed to be played
Fiddling is excellent.........but that is pretty much THEE BEST Tenor Guitar player I've ever seen!
Nicely done, Mr. Schauer!
Gods2ndFavoriteBassPlyr Thank you!
This is so much fun to listen to!🎻
That's what it's all about, @dmswan. Glad you found the Joy of Fiddling channel.
Great playing on this old standard. Thank you.
He sure can make that fiddle sing! Been taking fiddle lessons for 6 years and can play slow tunes but will never get that fast with arthritic hands.Just wish I could. Got my feet a tapping though! Love it!
Claire, you may not be breaking land speed records in a rocket car, but what's wrong with taking your time along the scenic route? Playing fast is not a virtue in and of itself and going slow does not make you any less a fiddler. Keep at it. It took Daniel a lifetime of dedication, devotion, and passion to make a fiddle sound like that.
Daniel and Amy Carwile are true masters of the violin and just good people. I may be a little biased as Amy is my daughter's violin teacher. :)
No bias at all, bjsalehi. What you said is absolutely true. They are masters AND just good people.
MAN, That was something to be heard ! keep up the passion.
Fine tune ever love this ever thank you
Thanks for saying so, Irish Field. Drop by the Joy of Fiddling channel anytime.
Simply awesome.
i' ve listen to alot of version of that song, and thats the best i came up with !!!! its in the style of playing.......Yvon
HOLY crap, so good. Luv it. :)
Brilliant!!
That was great! I loved it! Thanks so much for sharing.
Glad you found us, Mimi. Stop by Joy of Fiddling anytime. One of the biggest joys of fiddling is to share it with others.
Good one! Very well done!
Great version! Fun variations!
fabulous in every way. the best ragtime annie of any on youtube. and theres a lot of great ragtime annies there. watch the faces of the backup guitars. theyve heard, and backed up on, this tune hundreds of times, but look how happy and thrilled even they are. rightfully so.
Great observation, Franklin. I usually refrain from using the word "best" on this channel and in general when talking about fiddlers, styles, or versions of tunes. But I can definitely say that Daniel's run at this tune is most certainly one of my favorites. And the expressions on the faces of the pickers do indeed speak volumes about how they feel when they jam with Daniel.
Franklin, Daniel's an absolute joy to play with. That was a special evening for sure.
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST RTA THERE EVER WAS , AND PROBABLY EVER WILL BE .
I like the way he makes old number, his own great fiddle playing.🎻
wow, awesome job, very well played
Masterful fiddling !
Hey, Michael. I am very blessed to have a great many talented friends... Fiddlers, pickers, pluckers, and so on. Many of them are phenomenal musicians, but Daniel is one of the very few whom I would describe as someone who has "mastered" the instrument. It is the result of a lifetime of study, practice, performance, and devotion to the fiddle. I'm confident that Daniel would object to our use of the word "Master". For one thing he's a very down-to-earth humble gentleman. The other is, he never stopped studying, researching, and learning ways for his instrument to reach it's full audio potential.
This why some peoples learn to play and other are born to play, amazing talent
No doubt Daniel is gifted. But it's worth noting, I've had many conversations with Daniel about his younger days when he was learning the fiddle and honing his craft and I was amazed at the extent of his dedication, discipline, meticulous attention to detail, and commitment to putting in the countless hours of practice it takes to master an instrument. Talent is certainly a factor but Daniel was hungry for the music. And his continued passion for it comes through every time he plays.
@@joyoffiddling I'm so glad that you pointed this out. It reminds me of this anecdote from Earl Nightingale:
"An accomplished woman musician gave a great piano performance for a woman’s club. Afterward, over coffee, a woman gushed to the virtuoso, “I’d give anything to play as you do.”
Whereupon the woman who had given the concert took a sip of her cofiee and fixed the red-faced, slightly perspiring matron with a cold gaze. And she said, “Oh no you wouldn’t!”
A hush fell over the group, coffee cups stopped on their ways to and from their saucer, and the perspiring matron squirmed in sudden embarrassment. Looking about her she repeated, but in a softer voice, her original statement, “I would, too, give anything to play the piano as you do.”
The female virtuoso continued to sip her coffee and shake her head. “No, you wouldn’t,” she repeated. “If you would, you could play as well - possibly better, possibly a little worse than I do. You’d give anything to play as I do except time - except the one thing it takes to accomplish the fact. You wouldn’t sit and practice, hour after hour, day after day, year after year.” Then she flashed a warm smile, “Understand,” she said, “I’m not criticizing you. I’m just telling you that when you say you’d give anything to play as I do, you really don’t mean it. You really don’t mean it at all.”
In the pause that followed, a napkin falling to the thick rug would have rattled the windows. The women looked at each other and then back at their coffee cups. They realized that this woman had spoken the truth. They would like to have her talent now, fully matured and developed; but as for putting in the twenty years of work that went into the fashioning of it - no, that was a different matter. Soon, the light conversation was resumed and the incident was glossed over, but not forgotten"
An apt and accurate anecdote, @@iangray5407. There was a time when I would get ever so slightly irked to hear "You're so talented." I would reply politely, "No. I'm a hard worker."
Wow , Fantastic, this brightened up my day!
Glad to hear, @Kathy Bunze. That's what it's all about.
Love this reminds me of my dad and the get togethers we had at our home when I was a kid,
You might be surprised, @Laurel Robertson. That comment shows up quite a bit on this channel. Always love to hear the videos bring back good memories of people gathering together to make music.
Great display of talent!..Thanks for sharing!
Glad you found the video, radar200. Thank you for stopping by.
Best version I've heard ...trying to learn this tune ...George.. UK
Greetings, George +abbanj. An honor to hear from a fellow fiddler from across the pond. While I try not to use the word "best" when it comes to fiddlers or their versions of fiddle tunes, I can say that Daniel is one of my favorite fiddlers and this is definitely one of my favorite versions of "Ragtime Annie". Best of luck learning it...it's a classic and stylistically versatile tune...and a good one to play with friends at a jam session.
ill second that! BEST version of ragtime annie for sure
You've had 3 yrs. Got it yet???
Reminds me of Kenny Baker. Gotta love Daniel's improvisations. Great command of that fiddle! Yowsah!
Huge fan of Mr. Baker around here and I'm sure Daniel would be complimented by the comparison.
@@joyoffiddling Yeah he plays Nothing like Baker completely different styles.
@@donnyaldridge6452I don't think anyone was suggesting Daniel and Kenny's styles were the same. Kenny was primarily a Bluegrass fiddler and Daniel is not, although if the situation called for it, Daniel is certainly capable in a multitude of styles. All of my fiddle friends are Kenny Baker fans and most all of us play Kenny Baker compositions, although not in a traditional Bluegrass style. I took MrMusicguyma's comment in the spirit in which I believe it was intended. Kenny was a musician in total "command" of his instrument and I think it's obvious that description fits Daniel as well.
A very good fiddle song.
Awesome fiddling.
Nicely done!
Wow, that was some great fiddlin' right there!!!
Great fiddling, love it.
As a long ago fiddler with a maimed left wrist.... you're breaking my heart!
I am overcome with your "Joy of Fiddling" that once was mine also.
-from Vancouver Island
@picknngrinn, I can honestly say...I feel your pain...as do many in the fiddling and picking family. Sooner or later it seems like the aches and pains and injuries we get from playing our instruments (or otherwise) can really hamper our participation and enjoyment. I hope you take comfort in the fact you are not alone, on the contrary, you have a lot of company. And I hope the fond memories of playing in your past brings a bit of solace. Hang in there, and stop by the Joy of Fiddling channel anytime for mood boost or stroll down music memory lane.
Wow, you rock!
amazing playing again and again, .........Yvon
Glad you continue enjoy Daniel and the gang's videos, Yvon. I've watched them all over and over again and every single time I hear something new that I hadn't heard before.
This old 2 string tune has broken a lot of barriers. It sounds really good played by a good player.
MIck Jagger sang..."It's the singer not the song". I think, in some cases at least, the same can be said about fiddlers and fiddle tunes.
WOW! 😲❤️
Absolutely amazing!!!!! Just love this kind of music. I recently bought a new acoustic guitar and your video is very helpful in learning to play along with other acoustic musicians who enjoy these old tunes. Thank you very much for sharing.
Hey, KA7EII, welcome to the Joy of Fiddling channel. Love to receive comments like yours because my hope is that these videos will inspire. If you have not yet...check out Daniel and the gang working out the chord progression for "Snow Shoes" from the very same Atherton Session jam. They try a couple different versions and vote on what they like best. And as far as playing along with these videos, I absolutely encourage it. In fact, believe it or not, some of the musicians who appear in these videos actually do the same thing. All the folks in the Atherton Session are very good friends but we all live in different states and do not see each other but for a couple few times a year if we are lucky. When some miss their friends and feel like jamming, they'll hook up UA-cam to the television and cue up these video to play along with. Almost as fun as being there.
I'll check out Daniel's video. I can play UA-cam on our TV so I'm going to have fun learning to play along with you folks. Thank you again for all the fun!
You are most welcome. Fire up that computer, turn up those speakers, and let 'er rip.
Hey these guys are really good
its realy perfect
mastered!
the part at 2:00 minutes is soo darn good
Agreed! He looks up as if to say "ready for this guys?"
YAY...you tore that one up and rewrote it! SO much better than the old "Three Forks of Cheat" version I been playing all my life. Nice bow arm, you make it look easy!
excellent!!!!
I've missed Daniel since his days with the Full Moon Ensemble in Muscle Shoals, AL. Outstanding performance.
WOW!
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!
Astounding.
Just great ol time feel!
That's was awsome my grandpa use to play them old tunes.all I can do is screech.
Glad you found it, Mr Tate. Remember, most all fiddlers started out as "screechers"....even Daniel.
just awesome
Born to it !
i play by ear and i m learning little by little. i hope that i'll play like that some day wow....Yvon
Lots of us can only play by ear, Yvon. Welcome to the club.
What a super cool interpretation of this song! He makes it sound so much cooler than the original version! 😎😎😎😎🎻 🎻 🎻 🎻
I've gotta learn this one, for the same reason I had to learn St. Anne's Reel! It always seems to get called when I'm around;)
Bravo!
Great 😊!!
Fabulous fiddle
Ok, that’s as smooth as silk
Best I have heard!! Especially the part about 2 mins in . Would love more of him
Well, @dave leslie, the Joy of Fiddling channel has a multitude of videos featuring Daniel. In fact, you can go to the Playlists section and find them all collected together for anyone who wants to binge watch.
mighty fine
Wish I could play like that happy fiddler❤
Well, @donnaball1960, there's no guarantee anyone can play like Daniel. But...there's no reason you can't play like a happy fiddler.
well done
Excellent (Northern Ireland)
Believe it or not, Alec, Daniel can play a pretty mean Irish jig as well.
I would well believe it
THE BEST. NOTHING EVEN CLOSE TO THIS RTA .AND THERE ARE SOME GREAT RTA'S OUT THERE.
Glad you liked it, Franklin. On the Joy of Fiddling we resist the temptation of using words like "best fiddler" or "best version" in favor of words like "favorite". But your enthusiasm is duly noted and appreciated.
that was awesome uk
Greetings, TheSebtrain! Always great to receive a comment from "across the pond". If you or anyone else is interested in more videos featuring Kentucky fiddler Daniel Carwile there is an entire Playlist devoted to him on this channel. 21 videos in all.
Here's the link: ua-cam.com/play/PL-7sGqQweHSiluf7NmuR8v0fj1gS6lPeK.html
been playing guitar for 20 years this has inspired me to learn the fiddle!!!
This channel was started in hopes of fostering inspiration. Welcome to the fiddle family! The more the merrier.
I don't know what else he does, bur he does this extremely well !
Hey @Kevin Shaughnessy. I wasn't sure if you were referring to whether or not Daniel played other tunes well or if did something other than fiddle well. If it's the first one, there are a multitude of videos of Daniel on this channel that would satisfy anyone's curiosity. As for the latter, Daniel has a remarkably wide range of skills and interests that include, but are not limited to golf, fishing lures, and anything that involves spreadsheets, charts, and graphs.
@@joyoffiddling Thank you for your reply. I simply wanted to emphasize how great a player Daniel is, but thanks for the extra feedback. I live in the Ottawa Valley in Canada, lots of great fiddlers here as well !
@@kevinshaughnessy4095 Canada is an embarrassment of riches when it comes to great fiddlers and great fiddling. I hope you know that Calvin Vollrath is featured on this channel in several videos. In recent years I discovered Andy de Jarlis have become a big fan of the Metis style of fiddling. I hope to get up there some day to document that scene.
@@joyoffiddling I hope you do! I'm Metis in Canada and I've played with some amazing fiddlers as a pianist! Metis fiddlers are something else!
I know my father used to play with Andy DeJarlis wayyy back in the day. He said he was the best fiddler he's ever played with.
Believe me, @@RockSpoon123 getting up north to document some Metis players is high on my bucket list. Andy DeJarlis is an icon and a Canadian national treasure in my humble opinion. I had heard about Metis style years ago but didn't really "discover" it until a few years back when I shots some videos of Calvin Vollrath for this channel. In one video he did a medley of four tunes, three of which I was already familiar with. But a fourth tune really got in my ear to the point I had to learn it myself. That tune was "Surveyor's Reel" composed by Andy and that's when I went down the Metis rabbit hole. I've been a fan ever since.
I cannot stop watching this video- what an amazing flow
@Stash Wyslouch, in all the years I've had the pleasure of knowing Daniel, I've applied countless adjectives to his fiddling and "flow" is certainly one of them.
ma come fanno ad essere così bravi, ed affiatati....
Saluti Antonio! Siamo molto amici stretti uniti da una passione condivisa per questa musica. Abbiamo passato le nostre vite ad ascoltare, studiare, praticare e suonare insieme. Ma c'è anche una chimica speciale con questo gruppo che era presente in questa particolare serata. Quando la musica ti possiede, la magia può accadere.
This is so hard to watch the violinist wanting to get up and dance to his own song. Brilliant.
Howdy @David Johnston. Daniel is well known for having "mini musical raptures" if you will, while jamming, whereby he is unable to contain himself in a seated position and at random moments will rise abruptly to his feet. A few other videos of his on this channel demonstrate this phenomena....see his "Gold Rush" or "Fisher's Hornpipe" performance just to name two examples.
Don't be such a bump on a log while you're fiddling! LOL
In all seriousness, this was a great rendition. Great fiddling and lively playing by your band..
Listen with your eyes closed :D
This man plays like the fiddle's playing him at times and he's chasing and hanging on to it so it doesn't get away from him. Damn he can play.
Hey @robertmccully8761. You're observation is an apt one. Almost like Daniel is riding a bull and trying not to get bucked off. Daniel told me once that he will often "paint" himself into a corner on the fiddle...he doesn't know HOW he'll get out...but he knows he that WILL get out.
Absolutely Cool! Australia :)
Good to hear, Mandy. I will let Daniel know he's got at least one fan from 'down under'.
yeah, tell him i trying to get my family into it
keep up good job guys - fabulous!!!!
Will do, Mandy.
great
diggin the tenor guitar.
Me too, Gutbucket. The tenor guitar is a wonderful complement to a six string standard guitar and especially nice when counterbalanced by bass. It's also an instrument folks may not often see/hear in old-time fiddling and definitely an instrument I wish more people played.
Bello!
Felice che tu l'abbia trovato, Antonio.
kitūnõ, remek !
Üdvözlet, Magyarország! Jó hallani rólad.
Fantistici......
didn't think asleep at the wheel version could be bettered!
Daniel would consider that mighty high praise, Graham.
Great Americans!
Great backward shuffle at 2:00 minutes
You're the second person to reference that specific lick, Sheila. (see J Dub's comment below) I find that Daniel has countless little aural gems...many of them very subtle and nuanced...scattered throughout these videos. I've heard these recordings countless times but I am always catching "new" audio nuggets that I've missed before.
One hell of a bow hand.
Well observed, @tom quinn. When Daniel was in his younger formative years as a fiddler, he studied the masters, two of whom were Benny Thomasson and Terry Morris. He noticed one day that his bowing did not look like theirs. He set his mind on duplicating their fluid wrist motion and started a regimen that he called "mirror time" whereby he focused on his right hand in a mirror while playing and went to work until his wrist began to look more like Benny and Terry's. It did not happen overnight and he honed it over the years. I was at a jam session with Daniel and his wife Amy one night and they blessed me with the observation that perhaps I "could use a little mirror time". They were right. I went to work. Months went by with meager results. Incredibly frustrating and discouraging. Until one day I caught a glimpse in the mirror of what I was supposed to do. It was a modest breakthrough but I was elated. Still working on making it better all these years later but all that mirror time was worth it.
@@joyoffiddling just noticed your message. There are very few with bow hands like this. My late dad said of a fiddle player we were watching, it's like he has a broken wrist. A big compliment from my dad.
@@tom99892 "Broken wrist"...EXACTLY the term Mom used back in the day with her students. For folks curious about what that could look like...seek out fiddler Orville Burns' videos.
