TADY'S WATTLE (Maide Taidgin). AKA - "Tadie's Wattle," "Thady's Wattle." AKA and see “Comely Jane Downing,” "Goroum (The)," "Maide Taidgin," "Seymour's Fancy," “Tory/Torry Burn Lasses,” "Torryburn." Irish, Scottish; Reel or Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (O'Neill): AABB (Levey). 'Tady' i.e. Teddy, from Theodore. ‘Wattle’ refers to a stick. John Glen (1891) finds the earliest appearance of the tune in print in Glasgow musician James Aird's 1782 collection as "Tadie's Wattle," but all versions seem to be derived from the older Scottish "Torry Burn." Paul de Grae finds a cognate version in George Petrie's collection as "Goroum (The)" (Stanford/Petrie No. 898).

Additional notes
