Roscoe's Gone

Two parts. Key of D modal. Modal refers to the use of a C major chord to end each part.

• The Centralia Parlor Pickers' Society playlist include a solo fiddle recording [mp3].

• The Stairwell Sisters [utoob]. This is a driving sound. They jump right into part two so fast it seems they skip a measure. 

• Laura Smith plays it on clawhammer banjo with Canote brothers but the video is poor [utoob].

History

In this video [utoob], Catherine Whitesides tells the fiddle class the tune was composed by Nick Bradley on hearing that banjo player Roscoe Holcomb had died.
