Back to Chuck in the Bush (1)


CHUCK IN THE BUSH [1]. AKA - "Shuckin' the Bush." Old-Time, Breakdown. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABBCCDD (Silberberg): AABBCCD (Phillips). Composition of the tune has been attributed to the father of Bryan Houston, with the original name being "Bush in the Shucks." Benny Thommasson's "Bush in the Shucks/Chuck in the Bush" is considered by many a different tune, however. Source Hartz can be heard playing the tune on the 1995 Weiser contest recording. Silberberg and Phillips have the parts in different order.

Sources for notated versions: James Chancellor and Matthew Hartz (Meridian, Idaho) [Phillips]; Carthy Sisco [Silberberg].

Printed sources: Phillips (Traditional American Fiddle Tunes), vol. 1, 1994; p. 52. Silberberg (Tunes I Learned at Tractor Tavern), 2002; p. 23.

Recorded sources: Chancellor Records (PO Box 6058, Richardson, TX 75080), Jim Chancelor {AKA Texas Shorty}--"Best of Texas Shorty" (originally recorded in the late 50's, early 60's on a 45 RPM). Gillian Music (Rt. 3, Box 39, Chandler, OK, 74834)--"Benny Thomasson , volumes 1 and 2."
