Here's how Melvin Wine played a tune which is also found in the 1903 book of Irish fiddle tunes compiled by Chief Francis O'Neill, known as Mountain Hornpipe. I like this funny title given, though it sounds like skedaddling to me. If you hear how Melvin played fiddle in the recording with Carl Baron on banjo and Bob Carlin on guitar, you would hear how fast skedaddling really is. You can check out the current TOTW and hear it.

maybe not as fast as Carl's recording but yours moves along well too.

Thanks, Rick, for thinking so. It’s the senior citizens version. The melody fits such a title.
