A tune about life and changes.

From the 2006 CD "On The Edge" by The Cliffhangers. The players are Mark Simos, fiddle; Brendan Doyle (me), banjo; Jody Platt, tenor guitar; Rusty Neithammer, guitar; Karen Falkowski, bass. We learned it from the playing of George Mert Reves.

Famous fiddler Kenny Baker played Freda and Carthy Sisco (b. 1921), originally from Arkansas and later from Washington state, played his version of Freda. Carthy played lots of Kenny Baker tunes. Here I combine the two.

Thought I'd post a 3 finger original tune instead of a CH for a change. Named after the iconic NJ breakfast sandwich. Composed many years ago, I made this rough recording around 2016 and added a guitar track today to help hide, with little success, the mediocre banjo picking. Happy Independence holiday everyone.

Double D tuning and played on new walnut and pecan 11" open back
