SHIELS OWER DA BAR. Shetland, Shetland Reel. Peter Cooke notes the similarity of the title to that of the Northunbrian song "Sailors are all at the bar (The)", in the John Bell (1783-1864) music manuscript collection [1]. The Shetland reel title "Sail Her ower da Raft Trees" is also somewhat similar.
