BACK UP AND PUSH [1]. AKA and see "Rubber Dolly." Bluegrass; Breakdown. USA, widely known. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part (Lowinger): AABB (Brody, Silberberg): AA'BB (Phillips): AA'BB' (Reiner). Gid Tanner and the Skillet Lickers' 1934 version of the piece (backed with "Down Yonder") became the third best-selling country music record for that year. Gid's son, 17 year old Gordon Tanner, played uncredited fiddle lead at the session, according to Tony Russell. The tune is now widespread, having been popularized by bands such as Bill Monroe's and Benny Martin's, and influential fiddlers Kenny Baker, Buck Ryan, and others. The second part is little more than a 'double shuffle' (aka hokum shuffle or OBS/Orange Blossom Special shuffle) on the chords F, C and G.
