The Tune Wranglers recorded it in San Antonio in 1936 [released as Bb B6982 in July 1937 - reissued on Krazy Kat KK CD 28] - no lyrics, just some indecipherable dance calls. Byron Parker & His Mountaineers recorded it in Atlanta in Feb 1940 [issued as Bb B8432 in July 1640] - Russell's tome indicates instrumental only. Meade et alia also cite Lost Dog recording it in South Carolina in Feb 1939 - also intrumental only. Meade's sole book reference is David Brody 'The Fiddler's Fakebook' NYC, Oak Publications 1983, p282.
