Back to Jenny Cameron's Rant
JENNY CAMERON'S RANT. AKA and see "Bob o' Dooly (The)," "Carlin is Your Daughter Ready?," "Port Nan Con," "[[There's Nae Luck]"??? English, Reel. England, Northumberland. A Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Jenny Cameron is a common enough name, though the title may perhaps refer to Jenny Cameron of Glendessary, who not only raised some 300 men for Bonnie Prince Charlie, but led them to the raising of the Jacobite standard on August 19th, 1745. Despite the fierce pose in the English propaganda picture below, she did not take part in any fighting.
Matt Seattle notes that the alternative titles for this tune, "Bob o' Dooly (The)" and "Carlin is Your Daughter Ready?" are from a Robert Mackintosh publication that contains the only other version of "Jenny Cameron" to be found.
Source for notated version: The melody appears in the 1770 music manuscript collection of Northumberland musician William Vickers [1] (about whom, unfortunately, nothing is known).
Printed sources: Seattle (Great Northern/William Vickers), 1987, Part 3; No. 579.
