Texas Fiddle Archive: August 2012

Welcome!

This blog is for the sharing of non-copyrighted or out-of-print Texas style fiddle music. If you believe something posted here should not be shared, please contact me. Feel free to share this site on social media via Facebook, YouTube, etc.

If you download something, please share something back, too. Also, if you have information about any of these recordings, please pass it along. The goal of this site is to preserve the music with as much supplemental information as we can get!

Most of the music is shared in a .zip file format. You must decompress the .zip file before you can access and play the individual .mp3 songs. It's pretty easy with both Windows and Mac.

DISCLAIMER:

Much of this music was recorded from old worn cassettes that have been sitting in a box deteriorating for years. So...sometimes it sounds like music recorded from old worn cassettes that have been deteriorating for years. It's not studio quality, but it is good enough that you will still love the music.

Major Franklin with Omega Burden

Speaking of Major Franklin, here's something I found in a box of old tapes simply labeled, "Major with Omega". My favorite duo from any genre. Period. A lot of these recordings are copies of copies of copies, etc, etc. This one has some spots that are in pretty rough shape. Oh what I'd give to hear the original, clean recordings!
