f♯DF♯AD - I learned "Coke Oven March" from a 1960s recording of Dock Boggs made by Mike Seeger for the Smithsonian. Dock learned the tune from a cheap wind-up music box purchased while he was working at an industrial iron smelting furnace.

Hey Clifton! Not sure the details of the work doc was doing, but I can tell you more about coke and coke ovens.
Coke doesn’t burn hotter, just purer than coal. In iron making there’s been a long struggle to make iron without contaminating it with elements like sulfur which coal contains. For a long time the solution was to burn charcoal rather than coal... the English were the first to figure out how to use coal, since over there they’d run out of forests to consume for charcoal they figured that you could purify coal by burning it in a COKE OVEN and use that coke instead.
So, a coke oven is the furnace for actually making coke, that coke would later be burnt in a blast furnace for making the iron.
Eventually coke caught on over here since it’s more energy dense than charcoal and the old colonial charcoal burning furnaces faded away.
Thanks for the history. What would we be without history. I find history to be one of the most important things anyone should know about whatever they do.
Clif, a lesson on Chimes step by step and explained would be greatly appreciated!
Oh I love this tune, can’t wait to work on it! Thanks Clifton, and thanks for the historical background. ❤️
Coke comes from coal, you heat it in an oven or furnace without oxygen, and you drive off the volatiles from it, which you can collect to make gasoline or other types of flammable gas like propane, and what's left is just pure carbon, which burns really hot and it is very good for forging iron and steel. Anthracite coal is almost pure carbon already, but if you only have lignite, it's helpful to process it into coke.
I dig the history lesson behind the tune too!
Beautiful. I like this one a lot. It's jaunty 💃🏽 The harmonics and chimes are 🌟
This is my Favourite Banjo song out there!👌🏻
I love the story of where dock learned this song
Coke is the coal equivalent to charcoal. Coal that has been cooked basically.
A beautiful song and an excellent tutorial! Thanks Clifton😊👍👍
