West Virginia fiddler Burl Hammons is the source for the fiddle tune “Big Sciota” that has become a jam session favorite in bluegrass circles. His version of “Big Scioty”, however, is much more syncopated and illustrates the constant improvising that most old-time fiddlers engage in. Each A part is different from every other A part and the same is true of his B parts.

The three-part tune “Bull at the Wagon” comes from the Lewis Brothers, Dempson and Denmon, a fiddle and guitar duo that was recorded in El Paso, Texas, in 1929. Scott also references Oklahoma fiddler Earl Collins’s version. Scott’s arrangement of this A tune is also played with a capo at the second fret.
