Henry King's Reel

Henry King's Reel, a fiddle tune written by Trevor Stuart of Haywood County, North Carolina.
Playing with effects today, I found I like the sound of a slapback delay and octave pedal with my fiddle. I tracked this twice, once with just the delay and once with delay and an octave down.
Trevor Stuart and his twin brother Travis have a great cd/dvd album out on Tiki Parlour Recordings ("The Stuart Brothers"); I highly recommend it if you like fiddle tunes. Sadly, Trevor died last year, way too young.

Agreed. So cool how the sound fills out like a cello. I do a similar trick with a glockenspiel.

Ooh, glockenspiel must be fun. And, yeah, now that I've got this effects loop working, I want to try everything through it. Wind chimes. Pennywhistle. Otamatone.
