Always great to see the legendary Monte Gaylord, and what a lively 135 seconds of fiddle playing!
A bit of an issue with the time frame given though; the Chisholm Trail had long ceased as a cattle trail by the 1920's. By that time, railroads crossed Oklahoma north south, and U.S. 77 was already laid out along what had been the path of the Chisholm Trail.
However, with this fiddle being 200 years old, I could still VERY easily see this being carried along the trail during the 1800's!
