DOC BOYD'S JIG. AKA and see "Reel de I'île Bizard," "Reel du forgeron (2)," "Republican Set (The)." Canadian, Jig (6/8 time). 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 credit the arrangements, not the composition. Samuel Bayard (1981, Dance to the Fiddle) considers it a set of a tune also known as "<incipit title="load:republican" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Republican Set (The)">Republican Set (The)</incipit>"" and "<incipit title="load:jubiter" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Old Jubiter">Old Jubiter</incipit>"," 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 "<incipit title="load:jubiter" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Old Jubiter">Old Jubiter</incipit>" 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/Reel du forgeron (2)," recorded in 1936, a re-recording of his <incipit title="load:bizard" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Reel de I'île Bizard">Reel de I'île Bizard</incipit>," recorded at the end of 1931 (rebased the following year by Victor). The connection between Allard and the tune recorded by the group the Cornhuskers may be through Cornhusker's fiddler Jean Carignan, who considered Allard a teacher and mentor.
