i believe the carter family played this one. got it from the merlin session book one. I did a bit of internet research: The origins of this tune are unclear, although it is widespread from the South to Midwest, the American North and Canada and even to England and Scotland. "Chinese Breakdown" was first recorded by the "Dixie String Band" in 1925. And thats all I could find out but its enjoyable to play.
Not bad.

This is a nice melody - i have not heard it before, but I like it and it seems to be one of those tunes that sticks in the head for a while.
Have a good week,

That's quite a job you've done down in the tabs there. Do you find it attracts many international viewers? Great tune, also. I was expecting something Chinese, for obvious reasons, but this was just a good. Thanks.
