MULDOON'S FAVORITE. AKA and see "Colonel Wemys' Reel (2)," "Devil in a Bush (The)," "Kincaldrum," "Kurcaldrum's Reel," "Parson in the Suds (2)," "Maid of Argyle's (The)." Scottish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Curiously, the nearly identical "Maid of Argyle's" is printed but a few pages away in Ryan's/Cole's. Despite the Irish-sounding "Muldoon" title, the reel has a Scottish provenance.
