I've been thinking about trying to learn some fiddle tunes on the triple row diatonic accordion, something I really haven't messed about with much before. I play a couple Cajun pieces that would often be played with fiddle and the single row Cajun accordion together, but that isn't quite the same thing. Today, I was surfing around on youtube and came across this delighful video featuring Doc Watson talking about learning fiddle tunes on the guitar, then showing us just how it's done. I have a real soft spot for Doc Watson. I hope you all enjoy this one.

That was downright amazing.
'Maple Sugar' and 'Rosebud of Aranmore' are good fiddle tunes for the accordion. John
Maple Sugar is a fantastic tune. In fact right now, I have a Tribute to Ward Allen CD in the player in my car.
Have you ever played with a fiddle yet? I bet it is intense!
