- Here's the old dance tune Sugar Hill by Thornton and Emily Spencer. They are members of the Whitetop Mountain Band (www.whitetopmou...) based in Grayson County,VA. Thornton was born in 1935 and learned his fiddling from his brother-in-law Albert Hash, Corbett Stamper, Muncey Gaultney, Otis Burris, and several other old-timers. Emily learned to play the clawhammer banjo from Jont Blevins of Whitetop, Enoch Rutherford of Gold Hill,VA, Lawrence Russell of Smyth County, and alot of other oldtimers.
Snappy and lively! The real deal! 🤠
Listening to this at 4.45 am in the UK. Lovely playing , thank you.
Reminds me of my ancestors who came to America in 1770's. Later in 1852 the family traveled in covered wagons to Oregon. Now the largest family reunion West of the Mississippi!
Saw them in early 70's...Albert Hash was amazing and so is Emily
You are fantastic musicians!
Thanks, Emily and Thornton!
I was just reading the description thinking "Man, she reminds me of Enoch Rutherford". Crazy stuff.

D.
Tune to double c and capo at 2nd fret. Then crank your drone up to an A.
There’s a minor cord in both parts
