FRANKIE. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, north-eastern Ky. A Major ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'B. The tune was in the repertoire of Buddy Thomas's grandfather, Jimmy Richmond, although Thomas learned it from the whistling of his mother. Mark Wilson (1976) notes that the tune is related to Pete Riley's tune "Rattlesnake" and to a tune called "Boatin' Up Sandy" played by a Portsmouth, Ohio, fiddler.

Source for notated version: Buddy Thomas (1934-1974, Emmerson, Lewis County, Ky., 1973) [Milliner & Koken, Phillips, Titon].

Printed sources: Milliner & Koken (Milliner-Koken Collection of American Fiddle Tunes), 2011; p. 220. Phillips (Traditional American Fiddle Tunes, vol. 1), 1994; p. 92. Titon (Old-Time Kentucky Fiddle Tunes), 2001; No. 46, p. 78.
