PUCK'S SCOTCH REEL. AKA and see "Leap Year (1)." American (?), Scottish?; Reel (2/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABA. The first part is very similar to, probably cognate with, the first parts of "Connaught Reel (4) (A)," "Lucy Campbell (4)," "Reel of Bervie," "Lord Gordon's Reel". The second strains melodically differ, although are harmonically similar. A version of "Puck's Scotch Reel" was entered into the 1826-1859 anonymous music manuscript collection[1] (probably from the state of Maine) entitled ”Melodist: A Collection of music in two volumes" (No. 21, p. 13), with the generic title "Highland Reel." Boston music publisher Elias Howe printed "Puck's Scotch Reel" in his Musician's Omnibus Nos. 6 & 7 (1880-1882) around the same time as it was issued under the title "Leap Year (1)]]" in another Howe company publication, Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883), finds Fr. John Quinn, who categorizes both tunes as variants of the older "Lucy Campbell."
