eef
v.— «Deke Dickerson, called a “rock mainstay” in an April 2003 article in Guitar Player Magazine, is an old “eefer” himself. He explains that eefin is a “sort of wheezing-in-rhythm thing that was popular amongst hillbillies. It goes WAY back but for some reason had some kind of mass-culture resurgence around the late 60’s, probably due to HeeHaw on TV which featured Jimmy Riddle eefing on the show.”» —“What the heck is an eef?” Alan Ross Scottish, folk, and rock Music Aug. 22, 2006.
