Bill the Weaver's?

The liner notes on Whistle Stop say that Din Tarrant's and Bill the Weaver's are the same tune, but this is the one Brian Hughes plays, not the other entry for Bill the Weaver's.

As far as I know, Din Tarrant's is usually played with the A and B parts switched. I entered it the way I heard it on Whistle Stop, though, because I think it sounds better.
