about

These recordings feature Jimmy Wheeler on fiddle and Jeff Goehring on guitar, and were made at Jimmy’s
home in Portsmouth, Ohio in the mid 1980s when Jimmy was in his late 60s. Jimmy’s fiddling was typical
of a very articulate, melodic style prevalent in northern Kentucky and southern Ohio. Some of the older
fiddlers Jimmy mentioned as influences were his father Jim Wheeler, Jesse Large, Asa Neal, Forrest Pick,
Morris Allen, and Freddy Edwards. Jimmy worked as a stringed-instrument repairman and as a musician,
performing fiddle for dances, and guitar and bass for more popular music at local clubs. He also played guitar
with Forrest Pick on fiddle for many years as “the Personality Boys” on radio station WPAY in Portsmouth.

Natural History
by Jimmy Triplett

supported by 4 fans who also own “FRC 401 - Jimmy Wheeler: Recordings from the collection of Jeff Goehring”

Great playing and choice of tunes. No apologies needed for your interpretations of the tunes as far as I'm concerned. I'm a player and not an ethnomusicologist or historian. I probably re-interpret every tune I learn to make it mine. I have no problem with anyone else doing the same. We wouldn't have regional styles if it this personalizing were't part of the folk process from the getgo. Paul Gitlitz
