NEW MONEY. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, eastern Kentucky. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Doc Roberts [1] (1897-1978) recorded this indigenous east-central Kentucky tune in the 1920's (learned from Elzic Stone of Montgomery County, Ky., at a fiddle contest). Roberts recorded extensively with Gennett, ARC and Paramount. His repertoire consisted mostly of regional tunes and he paid little attention to outside music (Wolfe, 1982), however, his repertoire was not archaic, and "New Money" illustrates blues and ragtime influences.
