X:1 T:Unknown T:Frank Barbee Hornpipe N:From the playing of fiddler Eldia Barbee (Soddy, east Tennessee). N:Eldia had the tune from his father, Frank Barbee, a fiddler, as was his N:mother, older brother Jim, and sister Elzia (who was accounted the N:best fiddler in the family). According to Ron Williams, Roy Acuff at N:one time tried to get her to join his band. N:Mr. Barbee varied the strains each time the tune was played. This N:transcription represents the 2nd time through the tune posted on youtube.
