Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "Oil of Barley," or "[[Stingo]]," first appears in London publisher John Playford's first edition of the '''English Dancing Master''' (1651), although "Oil/Oyle of Barley" was always given as an alternate title. By the 1695 edition of the '''Dancing Master''' (published by son Henry Playford) the melody appeared under the similar title "[[Juice of Barley]]."
