Buckley's Hornpipe
BUCKLEY'S HORNPIPE. American, Hornpipe. E Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Composition credited to J. Red Buckley, according to Ryan's/Cole's, and to Fred Buckley (of the Original Buckely Serenaders) according to White's, however, the earliest publication, Howe's 1000 (c. 1867), does not give composer credits at all. See also "Buckley's Favorite Jig," presumably by the same family of composers.
