Texas Fiddle Archive: 2019

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.

Ace Sewell - Southwest Fiddlin' 1976

I had a request for Ace Sewell. Here is Southwest Fiddlin', recorded in 1976 and released by Voyager Recordings. (Voyager has a lot of diverse and fantastic fiddling in their catalog, including a couple of Benny Thomasson recordings). Rhythm guitar: Jay Horton, Ollie Miller. Bass: Jim Renner.

Note: the tunes are not presented in original order, but should you feel inclined to do so, the liner notes included in the .zip file show the original order.
