The other day I went to the music store with my sister in southport that had this awesome sale on sheet music and books galore on every instrument 2 books for a buck! Well I sure feel like I made out like a bandit!!! I bought 13 awesome books mostly on various fiddle tunes and fiddle techniques. I got different levels of of sheet music on Bluegrass, Celtic, Irish, Jazz, Western you name it! I can' t wait to dig in and learn them all!!! I can sight read ok but pick up by ear much better. So I am looking for music samples MP3 or even stream to help me learn the songs faster. Some I found here on Ezfolk Just wondering if anyone might have any other weblink suggestions where I could download or even stream traditional and non traditional songs of the generes listed above?? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch in advance! Holley

Holley- Go to YouTube and search for "fiddle""old time" and other such words, you'll find plenty! I just received a CD "Marcus Martin, When I Get My New House Done" from the North Carolina Folklife Institute ( http://www.ncfolk.org ). Here's another link to a fiddler on the Fiddle Hangout: http://www.fiddletunes.net/index.shtml You might like to drop by the FHO and check out the players there - lots of good tunes on their homepages there. http://www.fiddlehangout.org (Of course, most of my suggestions are slanting you towards the Old Time stuff, not what you have listed  )Brad

Here's a great web source for old timey and Celtic fiddle tunes in MIDI format: Hetzler's Fakebook Also, The Earth Tones performs a lot of Irish and old timey fiddle tunes (just click on the link below my signature line) Last edited on Fri Aug 31st, 2007 03:24 am by Will ____________________ Will http://ezfolk.com/audio/bands/297/ Loose Change & Friends http://ezfolk.com/audio/bands/245/ http://loosechangeandfriends.com The Earth Tones http://ezfolk.com/audio/bands/337/ A Bunch Of Coconuts http://abunchofcoconuts.com |

Hey Holly, There's a wealth of Old Time tunes here: http://www.jehile.com/ You'll have to navigate to the recorded archive but there's a ton of tunes there. Jehile was a brilliant fiddler with a wealth of tunes in his head. I hope this helps. As to the Irish tunes Alan Ng's tune finder is very helpful for tracking down recorded versions. Here's his site: http://www.irishtune.info/finder.htm Lucky you, I know how I feel when I stumble across great buys on song books, especially those out of print or real old. Peace, Ed
