AA: AB (Lamancusa): AABB (Beisswenger & McCann, Phillips, Titon). A favorite tune of Blind Ed Haley, influential fiddler from northeastern Kentucky. Dick Burnett of Monticello, Wayne County, Ky., who recorded the tune in 1927 (for Columbia Records) with fiddler Leonard Rutherford, recollected he might have learned the tune from Haley. It is known that Rutherford learned "[[Blackberry Blossom (4)]]" from Haley, says Mark Wilson. In any case, the Rutherford and Burnett version was very influential (through both their tours and their recording) and has become a standard, especially for Wayne County, Kentucky, old-time musicians-"the banjo head usually getting rapped in remembrance of Dick Burnett's wild performance of the piece" (Bobby Fuclher, 1986). | |||

LADIES ON THE/A STEAMBOAT. AKA and see "Tugboat." AKA - "Lady on a Steamboat." Old-Time, Breakdown. USA; Nebraska, Missouri, Kentucky. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA: AB (Lamancusa): AABB (Beisswenger & McCann, Phillips, Titon). A favorite tune of Blind Ed Haley, influential fiddler from northeastern Kentucky. Dick Burnett of Monticello, Wayne County, Ky., who recorded the tune in 1927 (for Columbia Records) with fiddler Leonard Rutherford, recollected he might have learned the tune from Haley. It is known that Rutherford learned "Blackberry Blossom (4)" from Haley, says Mark Wilson. In any case, the Rutherford and Burnett version was very influential (through both their tours and their recording) and has become a standard, especially for Wayne County, Kentucky, old-time musicians-"the banjo head usually getting rapped in remembrance of Dick Burnett's wild performance of the piece" (Bobby Fuclher, 1986).
Some similarities to "Steamboat 'Round the Bend" and close similarities to Nebraska fiddler Bob Walters' "Ladies Round the Bend" and "Po'/Poor Black Sheep."
