"Rockingham Cindy" by Tommy Jarrell, fiddle

Tommy Jarrell plays "Rockingham Cindy" on fiddle at his home in Toast, NC., Oct. 5, 1984. His fiddling is as strong as ever just a few months before his death. Brad Leftwich on banjo. Photo and recording by Linda Higginbotham.

For a couple of guys who couldn't think of what to play, they really got this one off.

Thank you.

Really enjoyed hearing this Brad. I've always enjoyed Tommy's fiddling but I was impressed by your banjo playing on this tune as well. I'm really looking forward to hearing more.

[@bradleftwich]

Thanks John! I'll be posting more of Tommy. I have a number of recordings of him on fiddle and me on banjo, also me on fiddle and him on banjo, as well as just him solo, dating back to about 1973. I want to make that stuff all available on TH-cam for fans of Tommy's music.

@@bradleftwich Thank you so much for posting these! Wonderful audio and playing, both!

I'll second what John said. Brad, you were right with Tommy on this one.

That was terrific. I just received “Down to the Cider Mill” today by mail and this is just as good!

[@bradleftwich]

Thank you! Check back from time to time, I have a lot of old field recordings of Tommy and will be putting up more in weeks (months) to come.

[@johno9754]

I have a Bob Carlin record with you on it and really enjoy that also. 😃
