A tune I made up in May of '07; when some tornadoes ripped through the state. Played in FCFC tuning on an old no-name, German Factory fiddle (which is now owned by Seabilliau...).

Here's the Mississippi tune Sullivan's Hollow played on an old (30's or 40's) Kay cheap mando. Standard tuning on mando, but on fiddle it should be ADAE tuning. I think I sold this mando for $200 or something and this was the sound file to help get it sold.

Played on an old cheap Kay mando from the 30's or so. I no longer have this mando.
