Jigs: Paddy Clancy’s Jig / Willie Clancy’s Fancy

[trad.]

These are two jigs from Steeleye Span’s third album Ten Man Mop or Mr Reservoir Butler Rides Again. The record’s sleeve notes said:

Mix well and do it fast … Hastings, 14 September 1971, Bill Hart’s jig R.I.P. … let’s walk to Manchester, 1-2-3-4 … sure Michael Coleman’s fast but he double tracks—puts the fingering on first and the bowing on afterwards … Sean mor chief fidil.
