I learned "Old Chattanooga" from a 1977 performance of Blaine Smith, Florrie Stewart, and Willie Branan recorded by Ron Williams and his high school students in Chattanooga, Tennessee. According to Williams, the trio learned this tune in the early 1900s from Tom Douglas (father of fiddler, Bob Douglas). See his compilation "The Pine Breeze Recordings" for more traditional folk music from east Tennessee.

My instrument is an 1888 Thompson & Odell "The Luscomb" banjo tuned e♭B♭E♭GB♭ ≈ gDGBD (A = 432 Hz).
