Steemit OpenMic Week 60 (cover) - Humours of Glendart - Irish Fiddle Jig

I've been playing this old jig for years and it is always evolving. Seems every time I play it I feel a new phrase or rhythm. Great songs have that effect.

My father is a great fiddler and he showed me how to play this tune when I was young. I never really latched onto it until I was in my 30's, but now it is one of my favourites.

Here is a photo of my father in the 1970's playing for my sister and cousin in our kitchen here in Newfoundland.
