Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Collection of field recordings of songs, ballads, hymns, fiddle tunes, banjo music, interviews, and stories performed and spoken by various people throughout Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio.

The collection includes field recordings of military personnel at Fort Thomas, Kentucky; French folk songs recorded in Vincennes, Indiana; and Amish singers, including Eli J. Bontrager and Joni Easch, in the Goshen, Indiana area, performing hymns from Ausbund, das ist, etliche schöne christliche lieder, 10th ed. Includes Alan Lomax's field notes from his interviews with the performers (some of whom had worked in minstrel shows and medicine shows, and in community gardens), information about the song titles, music, and the singers. During parts of this field trip the Lomaxes were accompanied by Paul G. Brewster, who was also conducting fieldwork in the region.

Steele says he learned the tune from a record in Harlan Co., but admits he might have added some elements himself - it bears little resemblance to the Samantha Bumgarner and Frank Hutchison records of the same name. AFS card identifies it as "The Weary Blues," but Steele sings "worried" and clearly calls it "The Worried Blues."?¨
