Tune properties and standard notation
SHIP DOCTOR, THE (An Dochtúir Loinge). Irish, Slip Jig. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Peter Kennedy (1999) prints the tune as "The Hip Doctor," which looks at first glance to be a misprint. However, the melody appears in dancing master Thomas Wilson's Companion to the Ball Room (1816) as "The Hyp Doctor," so it appears that is the correct title.
