The McCusker Brothers & Hugh Savage ~ origins

I believe I had other names for these two barndances/schottisches but damn if I can remember them or find them in my notes. However, I do remember also learning them from these sources, and while I have tried to remain true to them I have entered a few basic variations in the repeats, since the A-part gets plenty of play, as well as being the second half of the B-part. It's a fun set of tunes, including to dance to too...

Here it is ironed flat for those that prefer it that way ~

OOPS! ~ :-/ ~ It seems I left off the change back to =G2 at the end...

Apologies ~ the ABCs are now corrected, but the midi will be sounding flat, yuck! Here's the partially straight version corrected, with a few small variations ~

AKA The Darkie's Dream: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/6763 Dunno about the other tune, but I'll holler if I come across it elsewhere.
