Back to Dusty Miller (7)
DUSTY MILLER{'S} [7], THE ("An Muilleoir faoi Dheannach" or "An Muilleoir Luaitreac"). AKA and see "Benny's Jig" (Eng.). Irish, Slip Jig. G Major (Breathnach, Cole, McNulty, O'Neill): D Major (Heymann). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Breathnach, Heymann, O'Neill/1001): AABB (O'Neill/1850). A slip jig setting of Dusty Miller (5). The alternate title, "Benny's Jig", is a corruption of "Binny's Jig."
Source for notated version: fiddler Denis Murphy (Gneeveguilla, Co. Kerry, Ireland) [Breathnach/CRÉ II]; from the playing of piper, broadcaster and music collector Séamus Ennis (Dublin), who learned the tune from his father, a piper taught by Nicholas Markey who in turn had been taught by the renowned piper and pipemaker Billy Taylor of Drogheda and later Philadelphia [Breathnach/Ceol]. Jackie Small (1999), editor of CRÉ V, notes another connection of the tune with Ennis: "This tune was among the hundreds of pieces that Ennis collected from Colm Ó Caoidheain, from Glinsk, Connemara."
