This episode features the fiddle tune Climbing the Golden Stairs and addresses how Megan handles fiddle tunes that come out of the tradition of minstrel music and minstrel shows.
The other fiddle tune discussed is Golden Slippers by James A. Bland. The websites mentioned are bluegrassmessengers.com and Tater Joe's. The performers mentioned are the Bucking Mules and Edward Winter and I also mention the fiddler and caller David Smuckler.
