Subject: Still on the Hill by Howdy Forrester From: johnny_will@yahoo.com Date: 04 May 99 - 02:21 AM I am trying to find the music to STILL ON THE HILL played on a fiddle by HOWDY FORRESTER. Can anyone help? |

The Jones boys, the Jones boys
The Jones boys, the Jones boys |

Subject: RE: Still on the Hill by Howdy Forrester From: GUEST Date: 08 Jun 04 - 12:41 AM The "A" part of this tune is called "Sells Brothers Circus Rag." The rest of the tune was made up virtually on the spot by Forrester so that they could record it. He never played it again after that recording. |

Subject: RE: Still on the Hill by Howdy Forrester From: GUEST Date: 08 Jul 04 - 02:03 AM I finally found the music in a back issue of Devil's Box, the now defunct publication of the Tennessee Valley Old Time Fiddlers Association. Your librarian can help you locate it--there are 12 libraries in the country who have the DB issues--one is one of the Kansas State Univs. I forget which one. Happy hunting. |
