Tune properties and standard notation
INDIAN SQUAW [1]. AKA - "Indian Girl." Old-Time, Breakdown. G Major. GDad (fiddle). AB (Titon/Greene): ABC (Titon/Haley). Source Alva Greene's version is a simplified version of Ed Haley's "Indian Squaw," and Greene may have learned it directly from him. There is some discrepancy: Titon believes Greene's piece is a version of Haley's "Indian Squaw" tune, while John Hartford and Mark Wilson independently write that it is more similar to Haley's "Indian Nation." This opinion may also be the result of listening to two different field recordings of Greene playing the tune-Wilson himself recorded Greene for Rounder 0376, while Titon's version was notated from Chris Delaney's 1973 field recording. It was a showcase piece for Haley (born in Hart's Creek, W.Va, lived near Ashland, Ky.), who was the only fiddler to record the 'C' part, probably original with him.
