-'''BILLY WILSON [1]'''. AKA and see "[[Ace of Spades]]," "[[Little Billy Wilson]]," "[[Old Bill Wilson]]." Old-Time, Breakdown. A Major. Standard or AEae tunings (fiddle). ABC (Silberberg): AABBCC (Kuntz, Phillips). "Billy Wilson" features pizzicato, or plucked notes. A three-part version was synthesized by fiddler and musicologist Joel Shimberg and entered 'revival' tradition, although based on Uncle Jimmy Thompson's "Billy Wilson." Most modern versions are based on Shimberg's tune, originally called "[[Old Bill Wilson]]."
