BLACK RIVER. Old-Time Breakdown. See note for "Ladies in the Ballroom [2]," and "Rattlesnake Bit the Baby." Liner notes to Gene Goforth's album say that Ken Curtis, who played the character Festus on American TV's long-running Gunsmoke, whistled the tune and called it "Cherokee Square Dance." John Hartford calls it a 'cousin' to Howdy Forrester's "Ladies in the Ballroom," and Bill Monore's "Boston Boy."
Recorded sources: Rounder RO-0388, Gene Goforth -"Emminence Breakdown" (1997. Learned in 1958 from a tape of 'old man' Walter Alexander, of Leasburg, Mo.). Rounder 0442, John Hartford - "Hamilton Ironworks" (2001. Learned from Walter Alexander of Leasburg, Missouri).
