CACKLIN' HEN [1]. See "Old Hen Cackled (1) (The)," "Old Hen She Cackled," "Hen Cackle(d)," "Cluck Old Hen (1)," "Cackling Pullet," "Chicken in the Barnyard," "Old Man Depression Get on Your Way." Bluegrass, Old Time; Breakdown. USA, widely known. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Brody, Ruth, Shumway); AA'BB (Phillips): ABBCDD (Thede). Many variants, melodically disparate, of this widely known tune appear under titles which include the adjective "cluck" or "cackling," often with the word "old" also appendaged (see alternate titles above). It has been a fiddle contest standard, and is often still heard at fiddler's gatherings; for example, it is mentioned in a 1931 account of LaFollette, northeast Tenn., fiddlers' contest, and, in 1899 in a contest in Gallatin, Tenn., "Cackling Hen" was one of the 'catagory' tunes (where each fiddler would play the same tune with the winning version winning a prize {Charles Wolfe, The Devil's Box, vol. 14, No. 4, 12/1/80}). The piece was reworked by the early 20th century Georgia group called the Skillet Lickers, recorded in 1934 as "Old Man Depression Get on Your Way" in praise of Roosevelt's New Deal, The title appears in a list of traditional Ozarks Mountains fiddle tunes compiled by musicologist/folklorist Vance Randolph, published in 1954, and it was in the repertoire of Pocahontas County, West Virginia, fiddler Edden Hammons (1875-1955), recorded in the field in 1947.
