Back to Rusty Gulley (1)

RUSTY GULLEY [1]. AKA and see “Chalk's Hornpipe,” “Geld Him Lasses (Geld Him).” English, Old Hornpipe (3/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). There are several tunes that go by the name “Rusty Gulley.” This version is one of two that appear in the 1770 music manuscript copybook of Northumbrian musician William Vickers, about whom, unfortunately, little is known. There are several tunes that go by the name “Rusty Gulley.” The title, of which there are many variations, may derive from rostibolio, and Italian dance from the 16th century. However, a gulley is Borders and Geordie dialect for a large knife. This version is one of two that appear in the 1770 music manuscript copybook of Northumbrian musician William Vickers, about whom, unfortunately, little is known. See also the similar “Dusty Miller (6)” and “Wee Totum Fogg,” from the Scots Musical Museum (with parts reversed from Vickers’ tune).
