LAMSHAW'S FANCY. English, Reel. England, Northumberland. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. According to Bruce & Stokoe (1882) there were two Lamshaws that the title might refer to: 'Old' William Lamshaw (1712-1798) and 'Young' William Lamshaw (1782-1896), who was the grandson. Lamshaw was an innkeeper at Morpeth and one of the Town Waits (hired musicians on the municipal payroll). He became the Duchess of Northumberland's piper in 1775 and was musical tutor to the famous Northumbrian piper John Peacock. Lamshaw the younger was piper to the Duke of Northumberland.
