ABCs (and possibly title) needed for the second tune in this set

ABCs (and possibly title) needed for the second tune in this set

Can anyone supply me with the ABCs (and possibly the title of) the *second* tune in this set?

... Very nicely played by a bunch of Japanese musicians in Tokyo - and they make a good job of the first tune (Galopede) too !

(They're calling the second tune "The First of May", but It's not "The First of May" as posted here on the session)

Thanks in anticipation of any help ... :-)

I call the second tune Fisher's hornpipe. I play it in F, some people play it in D as well.

Hey, that was quick ... :-)

Thank you, anastasiadesroches - yes, Fisher's hornpipe it is, albeit not quite the same as the Fisher's Horpipe posted here on the session ...

.. thought that it seemed familiar!

Listening to that is a good way for me to forget how the tune goes, as there are a couple of phrases that are totally different from what I know.
