Um but I can play I'll play a Joe tune because uh I think that's more useful.
This is called Black Annie.
great.
So that's Black Annie and and like uh I learned that from playing with Joe and uh there's so many aspects of that that that feels like his music, his family's music, you know?
And um but the f the fact is that he's playing tunes that also uh other people in the region played, you know, white musicians played.
Like music really was regional and we tend to divide it into racial categories because of the commercial music industry.
That's really when that starts.
that you played and you you heard what somebody down the street was playing and then you know what I mean?
So
Again, that commercialism has really
Mestre.
messed with us, as you know, in in so many ways.
Yeah, it's like um in you know, n Justin Robinson is really the the the main proponent for his his fiddle style like these days, but um
Yeah, this this
I his bowing was very particular and it was really beautiful.
I can only do an approximation of it, but things like, you know he would he did this pushing up thing, you know, uh Justin calls it the barking puppy.
Yeah, it's I I feel like there's times when I feel like I'm falling into his vibe, you know, and it's like that's the other important thing about this music is that it is really ancestral.
Like and it and that's for everybody.
Like, you know.
this music has such a history and that's why it's so important to keep alive.
