Ernie Carpenter was a beloved fiddler who left us tunes like Granddad’s Favorite, Elk River Blues, and dozens more, a big and generous legacy. His music was simply for the soul.
Flatwoods was learned from a cassette tape of Tennessee fiddler Eldia Barbee, handed to me at the Appalachian String Band Festival in Clifftop, West Virginia about a zillion years ago.
