 GEORGIA STOMP. Old-Time, Breakdown. Composed by African-American fiddler Jim Baxter. Harry Smith (Folkways FA2952, 1952) says the recording is "structurally intermediate between the early rural string band style and the syncopated urban style that was perfected about 1880." Interpolated near the end of the recording is the "Louisiana regional melody" variously called "Gatemouth," "Get it Right," "Mamm'a Baby Boy," or "Pork Chops Rag."  Source for notated version:  Printed sources:  Recorded sources: Folkways FA2952, Andrew and Jim Baxter - "Anthology of American Folk Music, vol. Two: Social Music" (1952. Orig. rec. 1929, Victor V-38002B).
