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.

“Kiss Me Waltz” is a traditional fiddle waltz in the key of G, but the B part is in the key of D. John learned “Kiss Me Waltz” from Bill Monroe, who learned it from his uncle Pendleton Vandiver (“Uncle Pen). Monroe recorded it on his tribute album to Uncle Pen in the 1960s, and Kenny Baker has also recorded it. John teaches you the basic melody as well as how to play it with tremolo and double stops.
