Cindy and Rick are at the LeConte Center in Pigeon Forge for this Dry Run. They are there, playing with the Knoxville Area Dulcimer Club for two performances during Wilderness Wildlife Week, held each year in January. They decided to come early and do a few videos for Dry Runs and Finals. Christmas had kept them so busy that they had run out of video footage completely. Expect most of their normal things to happen during this video. Lots of mistakes, blathering on about this and that, and just bringing you along during the process.
This video is the "dry run" to get to what we thought was "Acceptable"
This week's song in "Midnight on the Water". This popular composition is usually credited to Texas fiddler Luke Thomasson, although it has been published that Luke's son Benny (a famous Texas-style fiddler who popularized the melody) long remembered the night he heard both his father and uncle composing the tune on the family porch (c. 1900?). Several sources have noted this tune's resemblance to an Oklahoma-collected tune called "Old Paint," and there is an ongoing debate about whether "Midnight" is derivative of "Paint" (or vice versa). The Library of Congress recording "Cowboy Songs, Ballads, and Cattle Calls from Texas", collected by John A. Lomax and edited by Duncan Emrich, has a version of the "Paint" song by Jess Morris which has quite similar melodic material with "Midnight on the Water." The liner notes to the album point out that Morris was born in 1878 and would perhaps have been contemporary with the Thomassons, who, like Morris, lived in the Texas panhandle.
Cindy is playing from a Joe Collins arrangement. Rick is playing by ear and makes up his parts on the go.
