And then, as salvation has died down, I should play another.
playing this stuff?
of it, I heard from my grandmother walking around the house,
tunes.
My auntie put me under the floor to buy it for me.
I went to music, and it was that bar and bar and bar,
bit, and I said, ah, that's good, but I can't play it,
she'd tell me about all the tunes she heard,

And then, as salvation has died down, I should play another.
How'd you get into playing this stuff?
Where'd you first hear it?
[G#] Well, I first heard the best of it, I heard from my grandmother walking around the house,
and, you know, [N] singing tunes.
And when I got to playing fiddle, you know,
I went to go to a music store that was a condition.
My auntie put me under the floor to buy it for me.
And she bought me a fiddle, and I went to music, and it was that bar and bar and bar,
and then I handed on bluegrass a little bit, and I said, ah, that's good, but I can't play it,
because I suck at fiddle, remember.
And she'd tell me about all the tunes she heard,
and her father, how he played, and all that stuff.
And I started asking her.
She was from, you were from California, but she was from Louisiana?
She is from north Louisiana.
She was born in Casper, Louisiana.
_ _ And she'd sang me, the first real tune I remember her singing was The Mine Reef Blues by Charlie Patton.
And then after she kind of got me started, you know, I went on to discover things on my own, most of it on my own.
She was my first break into it. _
_ _ Well, would you play, would you play a [F#] guitar?
Oh, sure, sure.
I don't know, some pretty young [G] lady just carelessly left this thing aside,
and it's beautiful.
Now, I think [C] I'll take it home.
_ You might have to fight me.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, she's still here, you know, I can't see so good.
What [E] you want, you want to hear anything in particular?
I love, I love that ragtime stuff, but [F#] anything you want to play is fine with me.
Anything [G#] sounds good.
Uh, I see.
