This is one I have learned from listening to Doc Watson. I have recorded it on a pocket size four track digital recorder. Two tracks with guitar. Rhythm on one and melody on the other. I play on a Harmony parlor guitar from around 1920.

I have tried for the first time to set one of my guitars up in Nashville tuning. It gives a very interesting sound pared with another guitar in regular tuning. I have recorded this song before both as sound file here, and as video on youtube, but I thought it would be a good one to try off this tuning on. The song tgoes way back to the British Isles several hundred years. Here's a little information from Wikipedia: "The Twa Sisters" is a murder ballad that recounts the tale of a girl drowned by her sister. It is first known to have appeared on a broadside in 1656 as "The Miller and the King's Daughter." At least 21 English variants exist under several names, including "Minnorie" or "Binnorie", "The Cruel Sister", "The Wind and Rain", "Dreadful Wind and Rain", "Two Sisters", and the "Bonnie Bows of London". The ballad was collected by Francis J. Child and is also listed in the Roud Folk Song Index." And apart from appearing in the folk repetoire in North America, the theme of the song is widely spread throughout northern Europe. There's at least 125 versions of it known in Sweden alone. It is also known in Denmark under the title "To Søstre". The Two Sisters. I sing that song somewhere else here among my youtube videos if you should be interested in hearing that version.

I have recorded this on a four track cassette recorder about 25 years ago. I sing and play guitar on two tracks. In the backgrounds I can hear my little son making little sounds now and then. He was about one year old at the time and sitting beside me.

Recorded a couple of years ago on a four-track digital recorder. Two guitars, which are actually the same, just playing a little different things on two tracks.
