about
This is one of our favorite tunes from West Virginia fiddler Melvin Wine. Melvin played it in standard tuning but we got the inspiration for this cross tuned version from a recording of Rhys Jones and Tashina Clarridge fiddling the tune at Clifftop. Leo came across this Clifftop recording at Mick Daly’s house in Cork and realized it was familiar.

This rendition of Virgil Anderson's "Jenny Hang the Kettle On" is wonderful. It perfectly grabs the simplistic beauty of Virgil's version, but has such clarity. Amazing album! Payton Scott
Powerful collection rooted in the stories that must be re-told. Played by some of the most generous community music people I’ve met during my foray into Old Time music.
This CD is a keeper! Ellen B. (Elly) Marshall
