Pa's Fiddle Playing


Just wanted to mention that the fiddle tune played in the episode "Meet Me at the Fair" during the ja¢kass chase is "Devil's Dream," which dates back to at least 1795, and is specifically mentioned in Little House in the Big Woods as being a tune Pa actually played. The music in this series is outstanding and this was a perfect choice.

The early versions of the walkman back then was paying to have a musician or two follow you around everywhere playing the tunes.
It got really crowded when one wanted to take them into the outhouse.

Instead of batteries the way to recharge them was by feeding.

Only when sung by Mr Edwards.
