VICTORY [1] (BREAKDOWN). Canadian, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Messer): AA'BB' (Begin). Composed by Maritime radio and TV fiddler Don Messer [1] (1909-1973). The title presumably refers to the Allied victory in World War II. Douglastown, Gaspé, Québec, fiddler Erskine Morris, apparently confused by the melodic similarity in parts with "Liverpool Hornpipe", called it by the latter title.
Source for notated version: French-Canadian button accordion player Philippe Bruneau (Québec) [Bégin].
Printed sources: Bégin (Philippe Bruneau), 1993; No. 61, p. 90. Messer (Way Down East), 1948; No. 5. Messer (Anthology of Favorite Fiddle Tunes), 1980; No. 25, p. 26.
Recorded sources: Apex 26276 (78 RPM), Don Messer & His Islanders. Apex AL 1608, "The Best of Don Messer and His Islanders: Volume 1."
