"Road to Malvern" is an old-time style breakdown in A Major. It is played in AEae fiddle tuning. The parts are played AABB. The tune is crooked with the B part having only seven measures. It is a modern composition by West Virginia fiddler Jim Childress, named after the Arkansas town where his wife was raised. The banjo tablature is by John Letscher who learned it from the playing of Light and Hitch. It was recorded by Jim Childress with Uncle Henry's Favorites on Turkey Sag (2004) and Light and Hitch on Light and Hitch (2007).
