Added by gorden-gibson, 16 Oct 2016 At one time this tune was only known among the Hammons clan of West Virginia. The shifts between minor and major modes make the tune especially interesting. Two theories have been offered about the title. It may be a corruption of 'Fall of Richmond' and refer to the fall of Richmond, VA in the Civil War; or it might refer to the rapids on the James River near Richmond.
