Back to Blue Joak
BLUE JOAK. AKA - "Blue Joke." English, Country Dance Tune or Jig (6/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. In addition to Daniel Wright's 1740 country dance collection, the tune appears in John Walsh's The Third Book of the Compleat Country Dancing-Master (London, 1735, p. 20, and the subsequent edition of 1749, p. 32). The title is one of a number of "Joke" country dances, such as "White Joke," "Green Joke (The)," etc., that played to the success of the very popular dance and song "Black Joke (1) (The)."
