SAILORS ON SHORE. AKA and see "Eileen Curran (1)," "Lady Dalrymple," "Lady Hamilton Dalrymple," "Sailor's Return (1)," "Sailor Set on Shore," Sailors Set on Shore." Irish (originally), American; Reel. G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The cognate reel "Paresis" is based on this tune. However, the melody began as a Scottish strathspey called "Lady Hamilton Dalrymple" AKA "Lady Dalrymple." As "Sailor Set Down on the Shore" it was a fiddle tune in the c. 1840’s music manuscript collection of fiddler and painter William Sidney Mount, of Long Island, whose brother Robert Nelson Mount worked as an itinerant dancing master. Francis O'Neill gives the reel as "Sailor's Return (1)" in his Music of Ireland (1903).
