Back to Wimbush Rag
WIMBUSH RAG. Old-Time, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. The original source for the tune was Theodore and Gus Clark of Barrow County, Georgia. Despite the title, the tune is not a "rag" but is rather a reel or breakdown. Unusual or more modern sounding string band tunes were sometimes called 'blues' or 'rag' in their title, in part for the cache.
Source for notated version: the Canebrake Rattlers [Phillips].
Printed sources: Phillips (Traditional American Fiddle Tunes, vol. 2), 1995; p. 172.
