#Squarch 29: Jeff City (Bill Katon’s Hornpipe)

I believe I first heard this tune at the same dance at the Subdued Stringband Jamboree where I heard Forked Ear, and I like it enough that it’s one of the core tunes for the Slower Than Dirt jam. (A few of my other #Squarch tunes are also in the Slower Than Dirt tunebook; I should go back and tag those.)

I’m honestly not sure what order the parts of this tune should go in. This order is the way I play it, and I think how Roger Netherton playes it, but Charlie Walden plays it the other way.

In any case, here’s my quick recording of “Jeff City” or “Bill Katon’s Hornpipe”:
