The Carter Family's "When the World's On Fire" was recorded May 24, 1930. Charles Wolfe notes: "When the World's On Fire, featuring Maybelle's steel guitar, used a tune learned from Lesley Riddle, grafted to words done by the Carters" (Notes to The Carter Family: In the Shadow of Clinch Mountain, Bear Family, p. 53).
