"Shuffle About", also known as "Shuffling Back" is an American reel in cut time and
D Major. The parts are played AABB'.
While most modern “revival” sources can be traced to a 1970’s recording by Vermont fiddler Pete Sutherland, it appears that Sutherland had the tune from a 1975 field recording by Bruce Greene of fiddler Everett Kays (1995-1906) of Lawrenceburg, Anderson County, north-central Kentucky (between Lexington and Louisville). The tune was called “Shuffling Back” by Kays. It was printed in Phillips' Traditional American Fiddle Tunes, vol. 1 (1994). |
