JACKY STEWART'S REEL. AKA and see "Peggy's on the Burn," "Rory MacNab." Scottish, Reel. E Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. John Glen (1891) finds the tune first in print in Robert Bremner's 1757 collection. See Irish variants in the "Game of Love (The)" tune family. See also the similarly-titled (but melodically different) "Jakie Stewart's Reel", a version of "Highland Man that Kissed His Grannie (1)," published in London by the Thompsons.
