To be honest I haven't ever looked into a history of this one as it just seems to have already existed in my consciousness. I'll post more when I dig a little deeper.

Shady Grove
Tune #2 of the week; this one is an old standard. I've always liked Shady Grove, but never really fell in love with it until I heard Wade Ward playing it on John Cohen's 'High Atmosphere' lp. I have to say, I absolutely love Wade Ward's style of playing. He plays with a direct, driving rhythm but in no way sacrifices the subtlety of a tune.
