John adds a drone string to much of the melody of the B part of “Little Liza Jane,” and the first phrase begins with a clawhammer-style rhythm. John walks you through it phrase by phrase and then shows you how to find the melody of the A part an octave up the neck.

“Jacky Wilson” comes from North Carolina fiddler John Salyer, who called it “Jack Wilson.” John recorded it on an album with Butch Baldassari and Robin Bullock and they called it “Little Jacky Wilson.” It’s in the key of D, but the melody of both parts starts and ends on an A note.
