DUNCAN'S REEL [1]. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Nebraska. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. R.P. Christeson (1973) says that he only heard the tune from Nebraska fiddler Uncle Bob Walters (who recorded it for him in 1956), yet it is on Charlie Walden's list of '100 essential Missouri fiddle tunes', which may indicate its dissemination via Christeson's collection. Iowa fiddler Dwight Lamb, who learned the tune directly from Bob Walters, says that Bob Christeson remarked (on one of his recordings) that Bob Walters' father, a fiddler, brought this tune home around 1909, although no one knew later who the 'Duncan' of the title was (liner notes to Rounder 0529).

Source for notated version: Bob Walters (Burt County, Nebraska) [Christeson].

Printed sources: R.P. Christeson (Old Time Fiddlers Repertory, vol. 1), 1973; No. 23, p. 18.

Recorded sources: Rounder CD0529, Dwight Lamb - "Hall Agin the Barn Door" (2005).
