The Fiddler's Companion and JC's ABC tune finder contain lots of tunes. 58 tunes are transcribed (not in ABC format) in Miles Krassen's Appalachian Fiddle (Oak Publications). See also Fiddle Tunes of the Old Frontier: The Henry Reed Collection; "This online collection incorporates 184 original sound recordings, 19 pages of fieldnotes, and 69 musical transcriptions with descriptive notes on tune histories and musical features."

Gday.

I'm looking for a collection of Appalachian Old Time fiddle tunes. Anyone know of any out there on the web?

If not, just a list of Old Time fiddle tunes would be good to find.
