Muckin' O' Gordie

Here's a video from member Charlie Walden teaching the jig Muckin' O' Gordie from Scotland in the Missouri Valley Style.

This is an excerpt from a fiddle workshop at Gryphon Strings in Palo Alto, California on December 13, 2015. Charlie walks the class through the tune, and now you can learn it, too!
