=Back to Miss Johnson (2)
MISS JOHNSON [2] (Inion Mhic Eoin). AKA and see “Miss Johnston (1)," “Cow that Ate the Blanket (2),” "Muster Bank (The)," "Mountainy Man (The)," "Rock the Cradle." Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Breathnach): AAB (Kennedy). Originally Scottish. The 'A' part is similar to the 'B' part of version #1, the standard setting. As “Miss Johnson of Houghton Hall” it is in Goulding & Co.’s Select Collection of Country Dances for the Pianoforte (c. 1807). Breathnach (1976) finds a related reel in “Humors of the Priest’s House (The).” “It was called ‘Mountainy Men (The)’ by Pádraig O’Loughlin, Miltown Malbay, County Clare,” he says. Versions of this tune seem to vary greatly musicall, as does the variety of spellings and iterations of the title.
Source for notated version: whistle player Des O'Conner (Ballinasloe, Ireland) [Breathnach].
Printed sources: Breathnach (CRÉ II), 1976; No. 188, pp. 98 99. Kennedy (Traditional Dance Music of Britain and Ireland: Reels and Rants), 1997; No. 134, p. 32.
