CORN ON THE COB. AKA and see "Logger's Breakdown." American, Reel/Breakdown. USA, North Dakota. B Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Pancerzewski believes this tune to be similar to "Logger's Breakdown," recorded by Canadian fiddler Don Messer in the 1940's. It was also reportedly in the repertoire of Texas fiddler Eck Robertson and his father, also a fiddler, about 1920.
