Arkansas Traveler and Eck Robertson
Eck Robertson recorded Arkansas Traveller and Sally Gooden for Edison Records in 1922. These must have been the first recordings of fiddle tunes.
Sally Gooden was included in the Smithsonian Country Classics. The other side of the original recording, Arkansas Traveller, remains a very popular tune in fiddle jams.
Here is the pdf file for the tune.
This is what Arkansas Traveller sounds like. First time, as it appears on the page, second time, a little more freely.
For another great hoedown in D, try Whiskey before Breakfast.
