PEGGIN' AWL. American, Reel (cut time). A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The tune was in the repertoire of Copen, Braxton County, West Virginia, fiddler Melvin Wine [1] (1909-2003). Southwest Virginia fiddler Henry Reed's "Route (The)" is a similar, but not cognate tune, as is "Jolly Blacksmith" from the Williamson family music manuscript.
