The melody was popularized by Irish fiddle master Michael Coleman (1891–1945) with his Columbia recording of October, 1921. Coleman, who recorded the tune early in his career, added a fourth part to the three found in Joyce, O'Neill and other 19th century Irish collections. However, the challenging fourth part in the Irish recordings predates Coleman; it was recorded in the early years of the 20th century on Capt. Francis O'Neill's hone-cylinder machine from the playing of the famous uilleann piper and vaudevillian, Patsy Touhey [http://archives.irishfest.com/dunn-family-collection/Music/Cylinders1.htm]. As "[[Cock Up Your Chin Billy]]" the tune was collected by County Cork-born John Edward Pigot (1822–1871) and appears in Joyce's '''Old Irish Folk Music and Songs''' (1909).

MONAGHAN {JIG}, THE (Port Muineacain or Port Mhuineacháin). AKA and see "Clay Pipe," "Cock Up Your Chin Billy," "Scarce o' Tatties (2)." Irish, Scottish; Double Jig. E Minor (O'Neill): E Dorian (Taylor). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABBCC (O'Neill/1850 & 1001, Taylor): AABBCCDD (Carlin, O'Neill/1915 & Krassen). The jig was first printed by Nathaniel Gow in his Fifth Collection of Strathspeys, Reels, etc. (Edinburgh, 1809), where it is identified as "Irish," although the fourth part is attributed to "Mr. Sharpe of Hoddam," a Perthshire gentleman-amateur violinist (see "Mr. Sharpe's Delight" for more on him).
The melody was popularized by Irish fiddle master Michael Coleman (1891–1945) with his Columbia recording of October, 1921. Coleman, who recorded the tune early in his career, added a fourth part to the three found in Joyce, O'Neill and other 19th century Irish collections. However, the challenging fourth part in the Irish recordings predates Coleman; it was recorded in the early years of the 20th century on Capt. Francis O'Neill's hone-cylinder machine from the playing of the famous uilleann piper and vaudevillian, Patsy Touhey [1]. As "Cock Up Your Chin Billy" the tune was collected by County Cork-born John Edward Pigot (1822–1871) and appears in Joyce's Old Irish Folk Music and Songs (1909). See also the related "Scatter the Mud."
