BROWN BUTTON SHOES. American, Reel (cut time). USA, northeastern Ky. G Major ('A' part) & C Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Phillips): AA'BB' (Reiner & Anick). The tune was also in the repertoire of Portsmouth, Ohio, fiddler and instrument repairer Jimmy Wheeler (1917-1987), who learned it either from his father or Acey "Aaa" Neal. Jeff Goehring says it was one of the "not-strictly Kentucky" tunes "popular among Portsmouth area fiddlers of an earlier era" [1]. Joe Stamper (Lewis County), another northeastern Kentucky fiddler, played a distanced version of the tune (which he also called "Brown Button Shoes").
