CHARLESTON NO. 2. Old Time, Breakdown. USA, Mississippi. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composed by Willie Narmour (Carroll County, Mississippi), although R.P. Christeson credits only "old 78's." "Charleston No. 2" was recorded by Narmour and Smith in September, 1929, in New York City, with a 'B' side of "Carroll County Blues No. 2," both attempts to increase sales by tying the titles to earlier Narmour and Smith recordings that were successful. There is an assertion that "Charleston No. 2" is the "Silver Star Hornpipe," however to my ear it does not sound similar to the tune of the latter title printed in Ryan/Cole.
