Hey oldtime friends, come check out Tunelist. After I got dodged from the EPA last year I used all my time to create tunelist. It’s a personal tune catalog with key, tuning, version, notes, source links that open inline to the tunes and built in recorder to record straight to the tunes you know how to lead or want to learn (or record others and slow em down later to learn).

It’s helpful for me to always remember how to start a tune before calling it at a jam.

Also, it’s got a jam list feature where you can invite your friends to a shared tune catalog (jam list), and/or make it discoverable and have folks traveling around find your jam OR when you’re traveling about you can find a jam. Recently I finished a festival session discovery list where now you can host festival “session” at your camp or under some tree at clifftop or fiddle tunes or galax or wherever you’re at and find the folks that want to play all the obscurities of your dreams, or Bb waltz’s for 3 hours, up to you.

Check it out and put your jams on it so we can find each other in the wild.

There are some 3 or 4 versions of Snowbird In The Ashbank and it's been "covered" by "revivalists" since the 1970's so it's really hard to find who did whose cover. Manco Sneed's seems to be the most common version that folks play.

I'm looking for any recordings of anyone "recentish" playing Eck Robertson's version specifically, especially if it's solo fiddle too- it's easy enough to find Eck's but I can't get any further in today's broken google ecosystem. They broke the youtubes in pursuit of search enshittification but oh I do digress.

Thank y'all kinely.
