| '''BLACKBERRY BLOSSOM [2]'''. AKA and see "[[Old Time Blackberry Blossom]]." Old-Time, Bluegrass; Breakdown. USA; Tennessee, Kentucky, Nebraska. G Major ('A' part) & E Minor ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). ABB (Christeson): ABB' (Berline): AABB (Brody, Krassen, Lowinger, Phillips). The tune is well-known as a traditional Kentucky dance tune. Charles Wolfe and Barry Poss note that Kentucky fiddlers have played a tune by that name since before the Civil War and that Kentucky fiddler Dick Burnett recorded a version in 1930 which has been the model for many traditional southern Kentucky/northern Tennessee versions (see "[[Blackberry Blossom (4)]]"). This version, however, is not Arthur Smith's "Blackberry Blossum," which is different and may have been an original of his. Smith recorded his version with the Arthur Smith Trio in 1929. "A family story tells of Arthur's playing the tune over WSM and the station conducting a contest to name the tune; bushels of mail came in, and a woman in Arkansas won with the name 'Blackberry Blossom'" (Charles Wolfe & Barry Poss).
