NAIL THAT CATFISH, bottled at the source
|



|
"Nail That Catfish to the Tree" is a fiddle tune i wrote a long time ago and people seem to like to play
it. The first recording of it was by the band the "Volo Bogtrotters", on our first release. Since then,
many bands have recorded it, and I have made tens of dollars on royalties. As you can see, there are
T-shirts available, with my art, and I recently got more made. If you would like to have one, go HERE.
If you would like to record the tune on an album which you are selling, there is a standard royalty
rate (maybe 9 cents per copy these days) and I am a working musician and can surely use it. Contact me
at trainwatcher2 AT yahoo DOT com (insert @ and . where needed). Many slight variations on the melody
are played. Often, people ask me how it sounds as I wrote it, and especially what exactly are the chords
in the beginning of the second part. I have made this page for a source recording for hearing the melody
and subtle bowing things that i play but barely understand how i do it. I'd appreciate any feedback
on whether it sounds okay and is helpful in any way. my homepage of frivolity and music is www.nailthatcatfish.com
