CUMBERLAND GAP [4]. Old-Time, Bluegrass; Breakdown. USA, Kentucky. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Titon): AAB (Phillips/1994): AA'B (Phillips/1989): AABB' (Krassen): AABBC (Phillips/1994). Jeff Titon (2001) believes source Leonard Rutherford [1] (c 1900-1954) may have learned this tune from African-American fiddler Cuje Bertram, who was a friend and sometimes informal playing partner and stand-in. Rutherford recorded the tune for Gennett Records in Richmond, Indiana, in 1928 with long-term playing partner Dick Burnett, with whom he was together with for some thirty-five years, and with guitarist Byrd Moore. Gennett released the record with "Moore, Burnett & Rutherford" credited on the label, and also issued it on their subsidiary label, Supertone, albeit as performed by "Southern Kentucky Mountaineers." Titon has found the tune title among those included in the 1915 Berea, Kentucky, tune lists and in records of Berea fiddle contests for 1919, 1920 and 1924.
