NINE MILE [1]. Old-Time, Breakdown. USA, Missouri. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Gene Goforth learned the tune from his father, but a different tune by the same title (see "Nine Mile (2)") was learned by Howe Teague from the regionally influential fiddler Roy Wooliver. Wooliver was also one of Goforth's primary influences, but in this case it was his father's tune that he played by the "Nine Mile" title.
