BROWN RED, THE. AKA - "The Brown Rod." Irish, Reel (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. "The Brown Red" was entered into two music manuscript collections of the latter 19th century: first, it is contained in the 1883 ms. collection of County Leitrim musician biography:Stephen Grier, and second in the c. 1909 ms. collection in the possession of biography:Rev. Luke Donnellan of south Ulster[1]. Researcher Conor Ward finds "Brown Red" to be a (distanced) member of the "Kiss the Maid Behind the Barrel" tune family, despite the different endings of each of the strains.
"Brown Red" = barnyard fowl? equine or bovine? human hair?
- ↑ Donnellan researcher Gerry O'Connor came to believe the ms. is not the work of the curate but rather was originally compiled by an unknown but able fiddler over the course of a playing lifetime, probably in the late 19th century. The ms. later came into the possession of Donnellan, who was also a fiddler.
