'''BILL BROWN'''. American, Reel (cut time). USA; Magoffin County, Ky. A Major. AEac# tuning (fiddle). AABB. An irregular tune (the 'A' part has eight repeated measures, the 'B' part four repeated measures) in repertoire of Kentucky fiddler [[biography:John Salyer]] (Salyersville, Magoffin County). It was named for the fiddler who played the tune. Jeff Titon (2001) suggests it might have been named after William H. "Bill" Brown, who was executed by hanging for the murder of Irish peddler Morris Hagerty in Morgan County, Ky., in 1855. Bruce Greene likened the tune to "[[Sugar in the Gourd]]," according to Bruce Molsky. [[File:salyer.jpg|500px|thumb|left|John Salyer]] | '''BILL BROWN'''. American, Reel (cut time).
