'''CUMBERLAND BLUES [1]'''. Old-Time, Country Rag (cut time). C Major ('A' part) & F Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Reconstructed from the 1921 pop hit "Wabash Blues" (a favorite with early jazz bands) by Madison County, Ky., fiddler Doc Roberts (1897-1978), whose fiddling (according to Tom Carter) reflected "the movement of new influences into the Upland South." Musicologist Charles Wolfe thinks the melody "a splendid combination of ragtime, blues, and old time-fiddling." The 1933 recording by the Doc Roberts Trio (Roberts on fiddle, Asa Martin and James Roberts on guitars), backed with "[[Down Yonder]]", was released on a number of subsidiary labels, including Perfect, Royal (Canada), Melotone and Banner. | '''CUMBERLAND BLUES [1]'''.
