"Fine Times at Our House", also known as "Fine Fun at Our House" (Pa.) and "Kitty's Got a Baby-O" is an old-time breakdown known in central W.Va., Virginia, Indiana and southwestern Pa. It is sometimes set in D Major/Mixolydian or A Mixolydian. The tune is crooked, having two extra beats in the last measure of the A part. Bayard (1981) points out that the tune "shades" between major and mixolydian in many versions, which is "a genuine and once common feature of our fiddling tradition".
Sources include: Burl Hammons (Marlinton, Pochahontas County, W.Va.), who says he learned it from his Uncle Neal (rather than Edden Hammons, who played a similar, but somewhat different version), John Summers (Marion, Indiana), Irvin Yaugher Jr. (Mt. Independence, Pennsylvania learned from his great-uncle), James Smalley (Westmoreland County, Pa.), Walter Ireland (Greene County, Pa.), Edden Hammons, via Jody Stecher [Fiddler Magazine, 2008] and Henry Yeager (Centre County, Pa.).
The banjo tablature is by John Letscher.
It was printed in Bayard's Hill Country Tunes (1944), Bayard's Dance to the Fiddle (1981), Fiddler Magazine, Fall 2008, Krassen's Masters of Old Time Fiddling (1983), Milliner & Koken's Milliner-Koken Collection of American Fiddle Tunes (2011), Phillips' Traditional American Fiddle Tunes, vol. 1 (1994) and Southern Folklore Quarterly (1942).
The version here is from a transcription of Edden Hammons who played it with almost constant double stop drones.
