Gold Rush

One of my all time favorite tunes. One of the first ones I learned to play.
When I played with Bill and Olen Gardner two weeks ago. One of them had the idea to start with Goldrush. I had a brain fart and couldn't remember the tune and it was very troubling to me--like I'd forgotten my own phone number or something.


Here it is:


Robert Bowlin, the fiddler here, is another one of those guys who is annoying for the very reason that they're so good. He won the Winfield Flatpicking Championship. [Ho-hum, just another day...] He gets the fiddle gig with Bill Monroe. [Yawn...]
He can probably play any instrument you stick in front of him.
