We had a request for this tune, so here 'tis.

I transcribed it in 6/8 as a single jig, though it certainly fits well into the long phrasing of a slide.

I knew this tune years ago but quit playing it because the second half didn't stir me at all. I recall doing turns on those fs in the first two bars of Part B, or playing them: |f2 e ~f3|fge fga| and also |f2 e def|fge fga|.
