Twofer Tuesday! (on Thursday)

Learned a new song (more or less) recently, Last Cold Whiskey by Paul Brown. The song is in an amazing tuning f#DF#AD, which sounds so beautiful to me, perfect balance between growl and coo. And the song is beautiful too. I added a few things of my own to Brown's composition, because that's what we do. Usually when I try out a new tuning I see what other songs, not written for that tuning, sound like and often times come up with interesting results. So I tried Speckled Dog (writ by myself) and turns out it was made for this tuning (for now). So here are two recordings made this morning in the aforementioned tuning. A little rough, but that's the way I like my old time music.
