The bluegrass jam favorite “Dixie Hoedown” comes from mandolin great Jesse McReynolds and has been recorded by numerous people, including Jerry Douglas, David Grisman, Matt Flinner, and many others. But nobody really plays the B part the same way. The version you’ll learn here is based on the way Grisman, Jesse McReynolds, Ronnie McCoury, and others played it on Bluegrass Mandolin Extravaganza. Joe starts by showing you the A part, phrase by phrase. You’ll also learn the chords to the A part in this video.

The D major fiddle tune you’ll learn in this lesson goes by a few different names, and is often played in the key of G or A. It’s known in Celtic circles as “Miss McLeod’s Reel” and by others as “Hop High Ladies.” Bluegrass guitarist David Grier recorded a version in the key of D under the name “Have You Ever Seen the Devil, Uncle Joe?,” and that’s the version Joe shows you here. He walks you through the A part of “Have You Ever Seen the Devil, Uncle Joe?” in this video.
