X: 1 T:Nong Tong Paw,aka. JJo.053 S:J.Jones MS,1801,N.Shrops. N:No time sig. in MS and JJ is undecided whether key is Bb or F. N:2 flats in 1st line and one in next two lines. N:It actually works in E as a simple major key jig, N:but the title may just posibly imply a musical N:joke in which the tune is played in a perceived oriental style! N:This odd little tune turns up in the Calvert MS (N. Yorks) where there is N:similar uncertainty between G and D. NeilB.
