"Little Daisy" is an American reel in cut time and A Major. It is often played in AEae fiddle tuning.<br> The parts are played AABB.<br> This is a moderately paced tune, slower than a reel but a bit faster than a march.<br> It was perhaps derived from a song. The tempo has increased somewhat by more recent<br> players, but still goes at a leisurely pace for a breakdown. <br> The tune was played by Pat Kingery (1912-c. 1976, Nobob, Barren County, Kentucky).<br> One of Barren County's most popular musical groups in the mid-twentieth century was Kingery's band<br> The Kentuckians, who recorded some sides for the Goldenrod label.<br> The banjo tablature is by John Letscher. The standard notation version is based on his rendering.<br> Maybe because of the rhythm, the B part brings to mind "Shove that Pig's Foot a Little Further<br> into the Fire" in this section.<br> Luke Richardson and Adam Hurt play the tune on youtube.<br>
