Another Old time tune of the month for December 2013. One of the most popular Old Time Tunes. I did this one on Banjo and Mandolin using a multirack recorder.
My arrangement of the classic. I've heard the lyrics were Foster's. I can't confirm it. I learned them from a musician named Steve Seal who played with Ace Weems' Fat Meat Boys. Steve played bass for my group as well as fiddle and banjo.
Handsome Molly played w/my band Goosetown Stringband. Me, lead singing/guitar; Marc Janssen, mando; Melissa Moreton, washtub; Brian Gotwals, clawhammer. Live gig at Uptown Bill's in Iowa City, Ia.
