There are a number of versions of this popular jig, with parts (varation sets) often in different order. Francis O'Neill (Irish Folk Music, 1910) says that the multi-part tune "created a sensation" when introduced to Chicago traditional musicians and dancers ("who had never heard" it before) by the elderly fiddler Edward Cronin, originally from Limerick Junction, County Tipperary (born in the early 1840's).
O'Neill thought it "quite probable" that the melody had originally been a clan march.
King of the Pipers is a common tune in County Donegal, where two different versions are played (see also King of the Pipers (2)).
Seán Keane was of the opinion the melody had a Donegal provenance and said it was associated with the Order of the Knights of St. Patrick. Caoimhin Mac Aoidh (1994) states that the tunes "clearly have piping origins" and remarks on the melody/drone rendition of the piece by Teelin, Donegal, fiddlers Francie Dearg Byrne and Mickey Ban Byrne--a style imitative of the pipes.
Feldman & O'Doherty (1979) believe the brothers probably obtained their version from piper Mickey Gallagher, a traveling cousin of famous Donegal fiddler John Doherty's. Alternate titles from the north are Kilraine Jig (The), named after a townland outside Glenties in the central mountain district of County Donegal, McSweeney's Jig]], named for the famous Donegal uilleann piper and fiddler Tarlach McSweeney, and Farting Badger (The).
