chicken reel

chicken reel

does anyone have the dots for the tune titled "chicken reel" which was on one of the earlier de dannan albums (i think it was "star spangled molly" but i'm not sure). it's a multi-part reel (4 or 5 parts, i think) in D.

Re: chicken reel

I did a Yahoo search on this. Is this tune by Joseph M. Daly?

I'm not sure what dots are, but I found the sheet music at http://hetzler.homestead.com/files/Chicken_Reel.gif .

Re: chicken reel

thanks to the whistler for the help. sadly, that's the tune that i've found whenever i've tried a search. right name, wrong tune. i think i'll have to track down the vinyl! thanks for trying anyway.

Re: chicken reel

I am wondering if Andy's Chicken Reel has another name.

Re: chicken reel

The Chicken Reel was used in old cartoons during the 50's. There has also been collected in the Catskill Mountains (non-resort) as a square dance.
