"Going down the Lee Highway" has become a staple of the old-time and bluegrass instrumental repertory. Roy Parker states this tune was composed by fiddler [[wikipedia:G.B._Grayson]] in the back of guitarist Henry Whitter's Model T Ford as it chugged down US 11 (Lee Highway) on the way to their Memphis recording session. It is attributed to Grayson on the Victor recording label. However, it has also been attributed to fiddler James ("Uncle Jimmy" or "Fiddlin' Jim") McCarroll of the Roane County Ramblers [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_Highway], who composed a very similar piece called "Home Town Blues," recorded a year earlier than Grayson's 1929 recording. See also the similar "[[Down Home Blues]]." | ||
