Ricketts Reel?
This is my rendition of the second tune in the Swing set on Barking Mad by Four Men And A Dog. I got the name from the list of tunes given on this site for that CD. I have lost the CD several years ago so I suspect the tune has wandered from that recording.
Note to players: the CD version was played to Swing rhythm.

This looks like a variant of Rickett's hornpipe, which is usually in D. It's fairly well-known in bluegrass circles over here.
You might post your transcription in the comments there, this might vanish in a cloud of purple smoke, condemned to the underworld of duplicated tunes.... although it might stay, I'm not the ultimate decision maker here.
