"Winder Slide", also known as "End of the Lane" or "End of the Layne" is an old-time
style breakdown. It is a modern ‘old-time’ tune composed around 1980 by Joe LaRose,
in the style of Gus and Theodore Clark, who recorded 2 sides in North Georgia about
1930 ("Barrow County Stomp" and "Wimbush Rag)".
Two versions are played, one from Joe’s original recording, covered by Bruce Molsky.
A second version was developed by LaRose, who added to the ‘B’ part of the tune. This
latter version was recorded by Rayna Gellert, learned from Bill Dillof.
Kerry Blech writes:
Bruce first heard it on a tape sent to him by a friend. Joe's original
recording of it was double tracked guitar and fiddle, with 78rpm surface noise
overlaid. The first version he sent around was jokingly titled as by Gus and
Theo. Clark. I forwarded it, as is, to many friends, and that is what Bruce apparently
received in the mail. "Winder Slide" also was left alongside the other two real 78rpm
cuts of the the Clarks, and was at the end of the taped interview with Bert Layne.
Bruce later told me that what he found out from me was called "Winder Slide" was
untitled on that tape and that he started calling it "The End of the Layne".
I picked it up at the Monday night jams at Don and Jean Wisniewski's.
