SADDLE OLD KATE. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA; Missouri, Arkansas. A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA’BB’. The title appears in a list of traditional Ozarks Mountains fiddle tunes compiled by musicologist/folklorist Vance Randolph, published in 1954, and, indeed, the melody seems to have had wide currency in the region. Arkansas fiddler Jesse Wallace learned the version he plays from a fiddler named Frank Watkins in the mid-1930’s. Ozarks fiddler Fred Stoneking told the story (heard from Bill Mustain) of two brothers who resolved their c. 1920’s dispute about how the tune should be played by calling one version “Saddle Old Kate,” and the other “Saddle Old Spike” (see note for the closely related “annotation:Saddle Old Spike”) [liner notes Stoneking’s album “Saddle Old Spike,” Rounder 0381). Drew Beisswenger (2008) sees similarities to some versions of “Got a Little Home to Go to," while Mark Wilson sees resemblances in the Skillet Lickers’ 1930's tune “Don’t You Cry My Honey.”
