#3 Old Chattanooga

My version
. 

Source version sample: Blaine Smith (in the Key of F).  This tune is popular in our jam circles her in the Twin Cities, Minnesota.  My favorite version is on the lovely album: A Bottle of Wine And Ginger Cake- Traditional Music from Southeast Tennessee.  For my video I squared up the tune so it has 2 A nd B Parts.

My version. Source version sample: Walter Family.  
I learned it from the playing of the Walter Family released on the fine Kentucky Mountain Music 7 CD box set, which is sold by the great independent County Sales out of Floyd, Virginia.
