I asked him why he didn't play more fiddle, he said he would leave that to the experts. I have a very nice CD of him playing the fiddle.

Thanks for making this available for all generations. I remember hearing Jim & Jesse do this on one of those BG compilation albums in the early 60's.
Love it just great..

Jesse was a good fiddler, but the demand for his cross picking on the mandolin gave him only rare opportunities to play the fiddle onstage. It was also much easier for him to sing with a mandolin in his hands. I was in a jam once and Bill Monroe was on mandolin and Jesse was playing fiddle. It wmay have been a one-of-a-kind jam as that never occurred again to my knowledge - where Jesse played fiddle with Bill.
