VINCENT CAMPBELL’S (JIG). AKA and see "Australian Waters," "Dewdrops on the Corn," "Mooney's Jig." Irish, Jig. D Major/Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB’. The tune is associated with Donegal fiddler Vincent Campbell, and thus may have originated in that county. “Australian Waters” is an alternate title, played by the late flute player Frankie Kennedy of the group Altan.
