Little Rabbit

There are lots of folk tunes that have cute names and "Little Rabbit" is one of them. (The other name of this tune is something distinctly more subversive: "John Brown's Dream"). The tune is actually quite intriguing. Instead of having a verse-chorus structure, it is made up of five parts, each a melodic variation on the same basic chord structure. Anyway, I've decided to record this tune by using the multi-track function in Garage Band. What I've done is to play the tune once through, then overdubbed that with a second rendition of the tune, but starting it only eight measures later. It turned out pretty decently.


Here's the tune clawhammered and fiddled and played at a speed that I can only aspire to!
