Old Joe Clark, Part 1 
 
“Old Joe Clark” is one of the most well-known American fiddle tunes, so it’s essential for all fiddlers to know it. It’s in the the key of A Mixolydian, which means that the usual seventh step of an A major scale (G#) is lowered by a half step to a G natural. Chad shows you the melody of both the A and B parts, phrase by phrase, giving you a chance to play each phrase (and then each part) along with him.
