Hobert Bowling: moved from southeastern Kentucky to the outskirts of Covington for the sake of its employment opportunities.  Other selections by Hobert on banjo and fiddle can be found on Rdr 0394 and 0544.  It was once common in old Kentucky to perform songs and hymns as slower airs on the fiddle.  Here Hobert arranges a popular song melody in the same DDAD crosstuning that J P utilizes on volume 2's Cruel Willie
