TGIFF! Its Fiddle Friday. Some of you may remember the Friday Night Fights sponsored by Gillette razor blades. I watched a bunch of them with my Dad, and I always liked the Gillette theme song. During those years I also used to order records from Uncle Jim O'Neal in CA.- the Rural Rhythm label. One order of fiddle tunes arrived and lo and behold it had the Gillette fight song! The tune is actually Look Sharp, Be Sharp and Mutt Poston had made a neat fiddle instrumental of the number. First up is an edited version of the intro to Friday Night Fights https://youtu.be/agD4Qxsw7Ik and the next video is the fiddle tune. Hope this brings back some great memories.
