Back to Land of Sweet Erin

LAND OF SWEET ERIN. AKA and see "Bannocks o' Barley Meal (1)," "Barley Meal," "Kenmure's Up and Awa'," "Kenmuir's On and Awa' Willie," "Kinnegad Slashers," "O! An Irishman's Heart," "O! Merry Am I," "Old Brags (The)," "Paddy Digging For 'Goold'," "Powers of Whiskey," "Slashers." Irish, Canadian, American; Jig. USA, New England. Canada, Prince Edward Island. D Major (Cole, Perlman): C Major (Linscott). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Cole, Linscott): AABBCC (Perlman). Perlman (1996) believes the third part, collected in Prince Edward Island, many be a recent addition. It is interesting that the P.E.I. title appears to be from the Cole's publication, rather from the island's Scottish tradition.

Source for notated version: Kenny Chaisson (b. c. 1947, Bear River, North-East Kings County, Prince Edward Island; now resident of Rollo Bay) [Perlman].

Printed sources: Cole (1000 Fiddle Tunes), 1940; p. 63. Linscott (Folk Songs of Old New England), 1936; p. 106. Perlman (The Fiddle Music of Prince Edward Island), 1996; p. 135. Ryan's Mammoth Collection, 1883; p. 93.

Recorded sources: Edison 4199 (Cylander), Joseph Samuels, 1920.
