A New Backing Track For “Black Mountain Rag”

This is a traditional old fiddle tune made popular by flatpicking guitar wizard Doc Watson. The tune is called, “Black Mountain Rag.” Dave Hum recorded the song on the 5-string banjo in standard tuning (gDGBD); capo 2nd fret, 5th string capo 7th fret for key of A. I've made backing tracks in the keys of A and G for your preference. Enjoy!
