about

Knockin’ at Your Door
AJ heard this tune on a home recording labeled “Dwight [Lamb] & Lena [Hughs], 1974.” None of the tracks were labeled and the recording contains playing by a couple different fiddlers. AJ had to call Dwight and play it to him over the phone to figure out what it was. Dwight says it’s a version of Knocking at Your Door played by Cyril Stinnett. Dwight says he knew it was Cyril because of the extra beat, which was something unique to Cyril’s way of playing this tune. Cyril was an incredibly accomplished fiddler born near Savannah, Missouri, in 1912. He lived in Filmore most of his life and played left-handed.
