Yet Another Drowsy Maggie on Baritone Fiddle and Pochette

Yeah, it may be over-done, but Drowsy Maggie always gets a lot of hits...plus this one has a baritone fiddle playing true second fiddle (not just the tune an octave lower) to a modern pochette, also known as a backpacker fiddle. Don Rickert (of Rickert & Ringholz) and Darci Jones (of Hooley and Fiddarci Lutherie) playing. As with all videos in which Dr. Don appears, all the flat notes, just plain wrong notes and strange chords are his contribution...a side-effect of chronic lack of practice.

meh. Octave intonation is weak. As a marketing tool I'd pull this one.

Good point...I might do that. I've got to get some practice time in and might have warmed up for a minute or two before we recorded this.
