ABOUT THE SONG:
A fiddler first, I’ve always adored the country stars who turned it over
to the band for a rippin’ instrumental halfway through the show. Paul Warren used to play a version of this tune at the end of some of the Flatt & Scruggs TV shows. Buddy Durham, played it regularly on the WWVA Wheeling Jamboree from 1955-1966. My sources for this assortment of parts also include Uncle Dick Hutchison (who contributed the crooked B part, via my good friend Jerry Correll of Elk Creek, Virginia,) Paul Holley (the only version I found that had a C part at all,) along with Benton Flippen and Paul Brown.
