'''BREECHES LOOSE [2]'''.  English, Jig. G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody was first published in John Johnson's '''Choice Collection of 200 Favourite Country Dances''', vol. 5 (London, 1750), and then in David Rutherford's '''Compleat Collection of 200 of the Most Celebrated Country Dances''' (London, 1756). Across the Channel, the melody was picked up by Benoit Andrez for his '''Recueil de Contradances Angloises''' (Liege, c. 1780). "Breeches Loose" appears on the same page in Thompson's (1757) collection as the jig "Petticoat Loose," obviously a companion tune.
