    Only problem with listening to “You’se a Viper” while straight is, it makes you not want to be. (Have you heard the Stones cover this? It is pretty amazing, though of course not as much beautiful fiddle.)

    Hey, my new song for trying to learn is “Old Joe’s Hittin the Jug” by Stuff Smith. Know it? It is great. I’m trying to convince my trumpet playing friend to learn it as well.

    I downloaded his album “Hot Jazz Violin” from some torrent on the Webbys somewhere but do not remember. It is probably findable with some combination of Google and other tools.
