Tune properties and standard notation
JIMMY IN THE SWAMP. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA; eastern Kentucky, Nebraska. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. West Virginia fiddler Wilson Douglas stated that regionally (i.e. eastern Kentucky/West Virginia/southern Ohio) influential fiddler Ed Haley played this tune. John Hartford notes that R.P. Christeson's source, Uncle Bob Walters' family moved to Iowa from Kentucky in the mid-1800's and that both Walters' father and grandfather were fiddled. His implication is that this musical family brought the tune to the mid-west from eastern Kentucky.
Source for notated version: Bob Walters (Burt County, Nebraska) [Christeson, Phillips].
Printed sources: R.P. Christeson (Old Time Fiddlers Repertory, vol. 1), 1973; p. 86. Phillips (Traditional American Fiddle Tunes), vol. 1, 1994; p. 124.
Recorded sources: Rounder CD0392, John Hartford - "Wild Hog in the Brush and a Bunch of Others You Might Not Have Heard" (1996).
