GIGUE À PADDY (Paddy's Jig). AKA - "Reel de Paddy." AKA and see "Mrs. Spens Monroe," "Miss Spens Munro," "Reel Lasalle." French-Canadian, Jig (6/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. The title perhaps indicates 'an Irish 6/8 time jig', as 'gigue' can also refer to duple-time tunes in Quebec tradition. "Reel de Paddy" is the second name for the tune on an Allard recording. Allard researcher Jean Duval finds that the Montreal fiddler earlier recorded it as "Reel Lasalle." However, the tune is derived from a British jig known variously as "Mrs. Spens Monroe," "King (The)," "Best in the Bag (The)," "Happy Mistake (The)," "Jim O'Connor's," "John Blessing's Delight, King's Jig (2)," "King of Jigs," "Lady Shire’s Favourite," "Miss Monroe’s Jig," and "Mrs. Monroe’s (1)"^[1].
