Billy Strings and Molly Tuttle - "Little Maggie"

[Beausoleil]

Ok, to complete my little bluegrass triptych, here is a masterpiece:

Excellent solos, excellent duets. Love the mandolin player's "Dawg Music" t-shirt.

1. Molly Tuttle also does a version of it using an alternate tuning.

It might be called 'mountain tuning' and renders the tune completely different than than this old standard.

I'll try and find it.

Edit: Oops, brain fart, guess I'm getting old. Its completely different because it IS completely different.

Here's Little Sadie not Little Maggie:

In any case, world class musicians, the lot of them.

2. I'd like to see that

I love her version/arrangement of "Cold Rain and Snow", so it wouldn't surprise me if she's done "Little Maggie".

3. I was goofing around with this tuning and style last year.

And that's all the time it took for me to forget it. That tuning is also called 'Orkney tuning'. I think, but don't hold me to it.

4. Excellent clawhammer!

She does an excellent version of "Old Man at the Mill" with it. Looks like the same tuning too.

5. Clawhammer ain't just for banjos.

I'm mostly an Irish-style fiddler but when I first heard that, I had to dust off the old beater guitar, retune and give it a go as it suits my taste in tunes.

Thanks for your post!
