When I first heard this beautiful tune as played by Adam Hurt and found it in the Jeff Titon book Old-Time Kentucky Fiddle Tunes I became excited to learn it. I used the notation in clawhammer style and then realized I could 3-finger pick it, too, with a few melodic adaptations. I do the song twice in this recording in order to use both styles, but won't state yet which one I do first so that you can just listen. I didn't use any picks. I know they're different styles, but I wonder what you perceive as being the similarities and differences between them. Your feedback here is appreciated.
