SIR JOHN SCOTT'S FAVORITE. AKA and see "Munster Rake (The)." Scottish (originally Irish), Slip Jig (9/8 time). A Major (Gow): G Major (Kennedy). Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Gow): AABBCCDD (Kennedy). Peter Kennedy’s third and fourth strains are the two strains that the Gows printed in their two-part version of the tune. The tune is identified as “Irish” in Gow’s 3rd Collection (1792), and it is in fact a version of the Irish slip jig "<incipit title="load:munster" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Munster Rake (The)">Munster Rake (The)</incipit>," itself a member of a large and varied tune family. Despite the Irish provenance, the Gow's saw fit to change the title to honor a Newcastle lawyer who rose to become Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain, John Scott (1751-1838), 1st Earl of Eldon.
