Back to Lost Indian (9)


LOST INDIAN [9]. AKA and see "Ninth of January," "Old Time Eighth of January." Old-Time, Breakdown. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. A 'crooked' tune in both parts (with an extra beat added in each ending cadence). In the repertoire of Alton Jones. Similarites to Thede's Oklahoma-collected "Lost Indian (1), and to Bob Holt's "Ninth of January." Drew Beisswenger (2008) also hears resemblance in the 2nd part of this tune and that of the well-known "Eighth of January" (a different tune than "Old Time Eighth of January"). There are the characteristic "Lost Indian" "whoops" sung at intervals in Jones's recording.

Source for notated version: Alton Jones (1918-2002, Theodosia, Mo.), learned from his Uncle John Wilhoit [Beisswenger & McCann].

Printed sources: Beisswenger & McCann (Ozarks Fiddle Music), 2008; p. 83.

Recorded sources: Rounder CD 0437, Alton Jones - "Traditional Fiddle Music of the Ozarks, vol. 3" (2000. Various artists).
