Cherry River Line - Lester McCumbers, fiddle

This is a tune Lester brought to the fiddle repertoire. Quite a few banjo players played and sang this, including some of Lester's relatives. I've also posted a video of Lester talking about one of the banjo players that he said could make the hair stand up on the back of your neck when he played Cherry River LIne.

Fiddle cross tuned in G.
