ROSCOE PARISH’S TUNE. AKA and see "Charlie Barnett Lowe's Tune," "Uncle Charlie's Tune," "Uncle Charlie Barnett Lowe's Tune." Old-Time, Breakdown/Reel (cut time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Every phrase ends on the subtonic chord (G). The tune is a member of the "Dry and Dusty" tune family. For more on Roscoe Parish (1897-1984) of Coal Creek, Virginia, see note for "annotation:Roscoe's Waltz." The alternate title "Charlie Barnett Lowe's Tune" refers to another source for the tune, Charlie Barnett Lowe of Lambsburg, Carroll County, Virginia, a banjo player and farmer who for a time employed influential Round Peak, North Carolina, fiddler Tommy Jarrell (1901-1985). According to field recorder Ray Alden [1], Jarrell also learned "Forked Deer" from him. Somewhat confusingly, Jarrell had another Uncle Charlie Lowe (1878-1964) in his musical life, also a banjo player from Round Peak, but a contemporary of his fiddling father, Ben Jarrell.
