Here's a song Ernest Stoneman (Pops Stoneman) recorded with his
wife. He played the tune in first position with tongue blocked octaves
as in the video example. The video is played on a D harp. Both the
video and tab show the tune in the upper and lower octaves. It's a
real fun tune, hope you like it!
