Willie is by far on the top when it comes to playing in the traditional manner. Now in his 80's his playing captivates his audience. I am so proud to be a friend. He is a living legend.I learn so much from Willie.You have to get his Cd, Willie Kennedy Cape Breton Violin from the North American Traditions Series.On the Rounder Label.

This is the kind of fiddling that takes me back... driving through the country in CB, visiting freinds and relations in kitchens throughout "God's country"! Great fiddling! Nice to catch this on video!
