DOC BOYD'S JIG. AKA and see "Republican Set (The)." Canadian, Jig. C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Credited to one John Burt (copyright 1933) by Harry Jarman, although it was common for publisher Jarman and others to so credit the arrangements, not the composition. Samuel Bayard (1981, Dance to the Fiddle) considers it a set of a tune also known as "Republican Set (The)" and "Old Jubiter," but also concedes that these kinds of tunes are representative of tunes formed by swapping, adapting and shifting of familiar strains or sections of other tunes. As "Old Jubiter" the jig was printed in Ira Ford's Traditional Music in America (1940), where it is described as a "dance and play-party tune." See also Joseph Allard's closely related "Gigue du Forgeron," recorded in 1936, which may have been based on Burt's tune.
