The Fiddle: Greatest Hits of The Devil’s Instrument is a rollicking ride of dazzling fiddle accompanied by banjo and guitar.
This album of 20 tracks features all of the most popular and well-known fiddle tunes. Many of the tracks have been made famous through films and cartoons. From classics like Dixie Hoedown, The Devil Went Down to Georgia and the Chicken Reel to lilting laments like the Ashokan Farewell (from Ken Burns’ documentary The Civil War) and the beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
Features Mike Kerin, one of Australia’s most accomplished fiddle players backed by Golden Guitar Winners, Ian Simpson and John Kane.
