Back to Joy Go Down Ye Lane We Ye

JOY GO DOWN YE LANE WE(/WI' YE). AKA and see "Joy gang down the lonning with her." English, Air and Jig (6/8 time). England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. One of the "missing tunes" from Northumbrian musician William Vickers' large 1770 music manuscript collection. The tune (as "Joy gang down the lonning with her") was contained in the Northumbrian music manuscript collection of John Smith, dated 1752, which is unfortunately now lost. The contents were copied by 19th century folk-music collector John Stokoe in 1887, when the manuscript was in the possession of Lewis Proudlock. Stokoe's volume Northumbrian Minstrelsy had been printed five year prior, and his interest in Smith’s ms. demonstrates Stokoe's continuing commitment to older Northumbrian music. The air also can be found in the manuscript tune book dated 1831, of William Thomas Green (1774-1860) p. 10.
