YOUNG EDWARD. AKA and see "Lonesome John." Old-Time, Air (whole time). A Major. AEae or EBEB tuning (fiddle). Played as a moderately paced listening tune up to breakdown speed. "Young Edward," from Knott County, Kentucky, World War I veteran and fiddler Hiram Stamper [1], is derived from the air to “Drunkard’s Dream (The),” a ballad whose first line is:
Young Edward you look so handsome now,
Stamper himself sang the following couplet (but could not remember any more of the lyric), for Bruce Greene:
I dreamed I staggered home one night,
Through dark and dismal gloom.
I missed my wife where could she be?
And strangers filled the room.
