'''JOHN PETERSON'S MARE'''. AKA and see "[[Haymarket Races]]." Shetland, Air (cut time). A Mixolydian ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Collected in 1947 by Pat Shuldham-Shaw from Shetland cooper and fiddler John Stickle, whose great-grandfather, Friedemann (or Fredemann) von Stickel, was a German seaman and fiddler who was shipwrecked near the Shetlands (although local lore, perhaps tongue in cheek, had it that he had been thrown overboard due to his shipmate's exasperation at his constant playing, or perhaps because they just didn't like him). Friedemann settled in the islands and married two local girls in his lifetime. His son, also Friedemann, was born in the 1780's and was also a fiddler.

JOHN PETERSON'S MARE. AKA and see "Haymarket Races." Shetland, Air (cut time). A Mixolydian ('A' part) & D Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Collected in 1947 by Pat Shuldham-Shaw from Shetland cooper and fiddler John Stickle, whose great-grandfather, Friedemann (or Fredemann) von Stickel, was a German seaman and fiddler who was shipwrecked near the Shetlands (although local lore, perhaps tongue in cheek, had it that he had been thrown overboard due to his shipmate's exasperation at his constant playing, or perhaps because they just didn't like him). Friedemann settled in the islands and married two local girls in his lifetime. His son, also Friedemann, was born in the 1780's and was also a fiddler.

There is a Northumbrian air and jig called "John Patterson's Mare" but it is a version of the song "Black and the Grey (The)" and is unrelated musically to Stickle's similarly-titled "John Peterson's Mare." In 1983 singer/guitarist Martin Carthy adapted Stickle's version for a song called "Fable of the Wings" (Topic 12TS431).
