'''AMAZON HORNPIPE.'''  American, Hornpipe. "Can be used as a Clog." There was a 19th century British steamship named Amazon, although what connection, if by remote chance any, with this tune is unknown. Paul de Grae identifies it as a version of O'Neill's "Spellan's Fiddle" ('''Music of Ireland''', 1903, No. 616). The beginning measures of the second part were incorporated into the beginning of the second part of O'Neill's "[[Star Hornpipe (1)]]."
'''AMAZON HORNPIPE.'''  American, Hornpipe (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A note in '''Ryan's Mammoth''' declares: "Can be used as a Clog." Paul de Grae identifies it as a version of O'Neill's "[[Spellan's Fiddle]]" ('''Music of Ireland''', 1903, No. 616) and "[[Spring Garden (The)]]." The beginning measures of the second part were incorporated into the beginning of the second part of O'Neill's "[[Star Hornpipe (1)]]."
