Fiddle
Tunes of the Old Frontier: Henry Reed
Known not only as a fiddler but as a banjoist
who finger-picked the banjo with all his fingers and
as a harmonica player who could play all the notes
of complicated dance tunes on the harmonica. He had
a reputation for always welcoming visitors and providing
food and a place to sleep as well as good music and
good company, and the Reed home became something of
a convening place within the Glen Lyn community.
