Frank Proffitt, mountain farmer, banjo-picking ballad singer, and Folk-Legacy's very first recording artist, did a fine version that he had learned from his aunt Nancy Prather. She sang "Gyps of David." Frank asked her if she didn't mean "Gypsy David" and she insisted it was "Gyps OF David," so that's how he always sang it, and how he recorded it for me. He was justly proud of his mountain traditions and not about to monkey around with them. Sandy
