ALL AROUND THE ROOM. AKA and see "Lady Douglas's Reel." Irish, Reel (4/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody appears in publisher James Alexander's Alexander's 50 New Scotch & Irish Reels & Hornpipes (c. 1826) as "Lady Douglas's Reel" attributed to the mysterious "W.J." who is credited with a half-dozen tunes in publisher James Alexander's Alexander's 50 New Scotch & Irish Reels & Hornpipes (c. 1826). The volume was edited by a "professional musician," who is presumably "W.J." himself.
