We missed Monday, so today we'll have a Swingin' Tuesday with Arthur 'Guitar Boogie' Smith sawin' out Oklahoma Fiddler. And no, I haven't confused him with Fiddlin' Arthur Smith. The liner notes on the album say, "The amazing versatility of this great Musician is ably demonstrated in this recording where Arthur Smith, who won renown as a guitarist, shows that he can play the fiddle with remarkable dexterity also." The tune is on the 1964 Starday album The Greatest Country Fiddlers Of Our Time.(Caution: you may need to turn your speakers down)
