AKA the "Beaver Valley Breakdown, "Georgia Bust Down, “Georgia Breakdown," and the "Tiger Rag," it caught on and was widespread from the South to Midwest, the American North and Canada and even to England and Scotland, first recorded by the "Dixie String Band" in 1925. - our version, the "Saltwater Breakdown" from a recent gathering of old tyme fiddle friends. | Saltwater Joy
