Vernon and Ruth Riddle
Tunes I Learned in Texas
An excellent collection of some of the finest old-time Southern fiddle music
from the lone star state. Vernon Riddle spent nearly 20 years in Texas
learning from some of the very best Texas fiddlers. This CD is proof of that.
You want your moneys worth, then here's 29 tunes that he learned in the lone
star state first-hand from the likes of Eck Robertson, Texas Shorty, Dale Morris
and Benny Thomasson. You will here rare hornpipes and reels, hoedowns and just
good plain honest fiddling. There's absolutely no singing- just fine fiddling.
Vernon is accompanied on guitar by his wife Ruth. She plays excellent back-up on
her Gibson guitar. Some of the tunes are: General Longstreet, The Hawk Got
a Chicken, Red Bird Hornpipe, Twin Reel, Hummingbird Reel, Smith Reel and many
more! Priced just right!!!!!
