THERE'S NAE LUCK ABOOT THE HOOSE [1]. AKA - "Nae luck aboot the hoose," "There's nae luck aboot hte hoose, there's nae luck ava". AKA and see “Black but Comely,” "For a' that and a' that," “Gille Dubh Mo Laochan (An),” "Jenny/Janny Cameron,” "Lady Mackintosh's Reel (1)," “Oíche Nollag,” “Strawberry Blossom (2), "Thady You Gander," Washing Day (1).” Scottish, English; Reel, Slow Air or Slow Strathspey. England, Northumberland. B Flat Major (Gow): E Flat Major (Hardie); G Major (Sweet): A Major (Kershaw). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Hardie): AAB (Gow): AABB (Kershaw, Sweet). Johnson (1984) says this famous tune, known to most Scots, appears to have been newly composed in the 18th century but was based on a imported 16th century Italian chord progression, called passamezzo moderno. John Glen (1891) finds the earliest appearance of the tune in print in James Aird's 1782 collection (No. 198). The title appears in Henry Robson's list of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes ("The Northern Minstrel's Budget"), which he published c. 1800. See also the Irish “Oíche Nollag” (Christmas Eve). Hardie's source, James F. Dickie, transformed the air into a slow strathspey. An American version appears as "Washday."
An untitled version of the melody is contained in the Joseph Kershaw manuscript. Kershaw was a fiddler who lived in Slackcote, Saddleworth, North West England, in the 19th century, and his manuscript dates from around 1820 onwards.
