BUMBLEBEE IN THE/A JUG [1], THE. AKA - "Bumblebee in a Jar." American, Reel (cut time). USA; Kentucky, Indianna. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Phillips): AABB' (Songer). The coarse part is supposed to imitate a bee trapped in a jug. John Hartford (1996) traces the tune through successive fiddlers. Most modern versions derived from George "Geo" Lee Hawkins of Bath County, Kentucky, who learned it from Tom Riley whose parents had emigrated from Ireland to Flemming County, Kentucky. Tom Riley later moved to Marion County, Indiana, where Dick (John) Summers picked it up. Hawkins also taught the tune to Bruce Greene and Jane Harrod, from whom Hartford and Roger Cooper learned it. Hawkins and Cooper play the tune in the key of 'C'. Fleming County, Ky., fiddler Alfred Bailey also had a version (see "Bumblebee in the Jug (2)") that is unlike the Hawkins tune (Hawkins and Bailey knew each other).
