SOLDIER LADDIE. AKA and see "Sailor Lad(die)." Scottish, English; Jig (6/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody appears in the [James] Gillespie Manuscript of Perth (1768), but John Glen (1891) finds the earliest appearance of the tune in print in Robert Bremner's 1757 collection. He was perhaps referring to Scottish collections, as it was printed in England by London publishers John Walsh (The Compleat Country Dancing-Master, 1731) and John Johnson (Wright's Compleat Collection, 1740) decades prior to Bremner.
