Low Level Hornpipe

This is not the Low Level Hornpipe recorded by Sean Maguire with the High Level on his Rubber recording `on 2 levels` under that name.Sean gave the title `low Level ` to a tune called the `Best Shot ` Hornpipe.

Fly By Night/Jessie Smith Hornpipe

I've just posted a tune called "Jessie Smith Hornpipe"
http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/11697/comments
which has an A part which is remarkably similar to "Fly By Night", althought the B part is rather different, thus its separate entry.

Arthur Seat nearer to Jessie Smith hornpipe

I prefer to associate better "Arthur Seat" to "Jessie Smith hornpipe", rather than "Fly by night".
Listen from "Over the sea to skye" by James Galway & the Chieftains, track 2, tune 3.
