OLD TAYLOR [1]. AKA and see "My Love is but a Lassie Yet (1)." Old-Time, Breakdown. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A member of a very large and varied tune family derived from the British melody "My Love is but a Lassie Yet (1)." The imported tune was widespread in North America under a variety of titles. It has been suggested Ford's title perhaps references Zachary Taylor (1784-1850), hero of the war with Mexico in the late 1840's and a President of the United States. However, Ford also prints an "Old Gregory" on the same page, so it may simply reference an unknown musician.
