DOC BOYD'S JIG. Canadian, Jig. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Credited to one John Burt (copyright 1933) by Harry Jarman. Samuel Bayard (1981, Dance to the Fiddle) considers it a set of a tune also known as "Republican Set (The)" and "Old Jubiter," but also conceeds that these kinds of tunes are representative of tunes formed by swapping, adapting and shifting of familiar strains or sections of other tunes. See also Joseph Allard's closely related "Gigue du Forgeron," recorded in 1936, which may have been based on Burt's tune.
