Ebenezer

I’ve been a bit infatuated with “Ebenezer” lately on fiddle, so I figured I’d record it. Only been trying a couple days to get a good take between loud and obnoxious vehicles and their operators, and accidentally deleting my banjo part. Pretty sure I first learned it at a Cabin jam. A few of the variations like the descending latter half of the B part I got from a recording of Israel Welch, though I play it once here to end it.

I looked around on the Traditional Tune Archive, and apparently this goes by a few other names including “West Virginia Highway/Farewell”.

I had recorded this tune previously on a bottle gourd banjo:    • Ebenezer
