The harmonica Player..1926..David Wendell Fentress Guion.

[Steve Harrison]

Guion was born in Texas and was known as the cowboy composer as he composed music based on traditional cowboy songs, spirituals and other traditional tunes. This is the third tune in a suite of music called Alley Tunes, I would describe it as a hoe down and contains what I believe to be arrangements of old fiddle tunes, none of which I recognize. Guion led a fascinating life and his bio on Wikipedia is worth a read. The piano score was written in Db but I've arranged it in C as it better suits the banjo. I've set the MP3 tempo as recommended on the piano score, it's challenging to play but it still works well at slightly lower speed...Steve.
