Fiddlin' was a key component in Randall's life that changed his direction and opened doors for him. Boil Dem Cabbage Down is influenced by the Georgia fiddlers who he heard growing up from the old-time fiddle bands. As a boy, he jammed with many, listened to their records, and some even tutored him as he grew like Gordon Tanner of the Skillet Lickers. The combination of fiddle and clawhammer banjo has always been part of his music and he continues that tradition with this performance.

"I think this is by far one of my favorite songs to perform," Randall Franks said. "I love the whimsical nature of the words and the feel of the fiddle variations. I was honored when I was asked to perform it for Dolly Parton in her movie 'Blue Valley Songbird' years ago."
