JOHN SHARP'S HORNPIPE. AKA and see "John Sharp's Tune," "John Sharp's Reel," "Sharp's Hornpipe (1)." American, Reel (cut or 2/4 time). USA, Cumberland Plateau region of Ky./Tenn. A Major/Mixolydian. AEae or standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Phillips): AA'BB' (Milliner-Koken). John Sharp's band, the Kentucky Wildcats, was a popular Cumberland Plateau string band in the 1920's and 1930's. Sharp, born in 1894, recorded this tune and others in 1949 on a home disk cutter purchased by his neighbor, the decorated World War I veteran Alvin York. The melody is a variant of "Miller's Reel (1)." Kerry Blech thinks Indiana fiddler Dick Summers' “Same Time Today as it was Yesterday" is a related tune [1].
