'''BOBBY SHAFTOE [2]'''. English, Sword Dance (2/2 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. It is the first figure in the sword dance from the area of Sleights, England. "One of the tune used in the Abbots Bromley (Stafforshire) horn dance. "In an article published in 1933, Violet Alford noted the dancers used 'Bobby Shaftoe' when she first encountered the horn dance. The arrangement given here is used for the Sleights sword dance. Alford also noted that the musician plays three tunes, 'Bobby Shaftoe,' 'Her Golden Hair' of music hall memory, and a not un-pleasing nondescript tune in 2/4 time (pg. 206). I believe that the 'not un-pleasing ... tune in 2/4 time is Edie Sammons' tune (see "Edie Sammons' Tune"), which, until Sharp published Mr. Robinson's tune in 1911, was considered to be the official music of the dance" [Bullen].
