Wild Bill Jones (Appalachian Murder Ballad) - Sam Shackleton

Busking a wee Appalachian murder ballad called “Wild Bill Jones” on the banjo down a wee close (alleyway) in Edinburgh, Scotland, on a cold winter’s night. The Appalachian folk tradition is so rich and beautiful and includes most of my favourite songs to play in the world, this being one of them. It’s also deeply interconnected with the Scottish folk tradition and even the mountains themselves were once part of the same mountain range many thousands of years ago. Look forward to posting more of these tunes for ya all as I’ve been out recording a lot recently.
