Scatter the Mud

I've been feeling this jig is too repetitive and boring to play, but I got in trance with it this afternoon. The version I picked up from Kevin Burke's playing is:

Eileen Ivers plays the similar one.

Emerald Rose version

Here's how Emerald Rose plays it. Quite different, but nice.

Re: Emerald Rose version

Somewhat similar to Kevin Burke's version. Especially the second part.

Scatter the Mud question

I was listening to this (it's amazing):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YVfKKCsF7k

and was wondering if anybody knew where there was sheet music for this version fo scatter the mud which has many more parts than the standard A minor 2 part one I hear at sessions. Does this tune in multi-part form have other names perhaps?

Re: Scatter the Mud question

Well IMHO it is 'scatter the mud' with a good few variations and a little playing about with the timing. I can't really hear a separate third part.
I really like his playing and the reel which sounds to be 'new mown meadows' as stated on the site is a lovely session tune.

After watching it, I was prompted to watch this -

Its poor quality but it's a story everyone should know.

Re: Scatter the Mud question

Sounds like the regular two part Scatter the Mud to me.
