X:1 T:Cheyenne Waltz N:From the playing of Tom Fuller (1890-1979, Ok.), recorded in the field by N:Brad Leftwich in 1973. N:Fuller, born and raised in Indian Territory, pre-statehood, was a farmer, N:cowboy and oilfield worker in southern Oklahoma and west Texas. His fiddling N:predates the popular "contest" style of fiddling, according to Brad Leftwich, N:and "represents an earlier time...when a fiddler's main role was to play for dancing N:and to entertain family and neighbors." M:3/4 L:1/8 R:Waltz N:Fuller played the eighth notes with considerable "swing" D:Field Recorder Collective FRC714, "Tom Fuller:Traditional Fiddling from Oklahoma and Texas" (2015) D:https://www.slippery-hill.com/recording/cheyenne-waltz Z:Transcribed by Andrew Kuntz K:D ([DA]B) |A2[F2A2]-[D2A2]|[F4A4]{AB}([DA]B) |A2[F2A2]E2|[D4A4]([DA]B) |A2[F2A2]-[D2A2]| [F4A4]{AB}([DA]B) |A2[F2A2][E2A2]|[D4A4]A2|d4d2|d2B2A2|d2-dB B2| A4 AB-|A2[F2A2][E2A2]|[D4A4]A2||:+slide+[e2e2] [ee][ee] ef|e2d2 e2| f2fA- d2A-|B2A2 B-A|d2-de- fe|d2B2AB|d2B2A2|[D4A4][D2A2]:|
