'''OLD FLANNIGAN/FLANAGAN.''' Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Kentucky. A Major ('A' part) & E Major ('B' part). Standard or AEae tuning (fiddle). AABB (Songer): AABB' (Phillips). The tune was brought north to Kentucky by a fiddler named Brack Flannigan, originally from Texas, who settled in the Gallatin/Grant County area. It was recorded by a Grant County, northeast Kentucky, band called the Blue Ridge Mountaineers in 1929 in Richmond, Indiana, one of only two sides the group recorded. The Mountaineer's fiddler, Frank Miller, had the tune from his uncle John Hall who had learned it from Flannigan. Having no name for the tune, they called it after their original source. The story may be somewhat apocryphal as the tune appears to be derived from "[[Old Mother Flanagan]]." Collector John Harrod explains the Ohio River fiddle style, a la Frank Miller, sounds similar to Canadian fiddling, fast and 'notey'. | '''OLD FLANNIGAN/FLANAGAN.''' Old-Time, Breakdown.

OLD FLANNIGAN/FLANAGAN. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Kentucky. A Major ('A' part) & E Major ('B' part). Standard or AEae tuning (fiddle). AABB (Songer): AABB' (Phillips). The tune was brought north to Kentucky by a fiddler named Brack Flannigan, originally from Texas, who settled in the Gallatin/Grant County area. It was recorded by a Grant County, northeast Kentucky, band called the Blue Ridge Mountaineers in 1929 in Richmond, Indiana, one of only two sides the group recorded. The Mountaineer's fiddler, Frank Miller, had the tune from his uncle John Hall who had learned it from Flannigan. Having no name for the tune, they called it after their original source. The story may be somewhat apocryphal as the tune appears to be derived from "Old Mother Flanagan." Collector John Harrod explains the Ohio River fiddle style, a la Frank Miller, sounds similar to Canadian fiddling, fast and 'notey'.
