GLÂN MEDDWDOD MWYN (Good Humoured & Fairly Tipsy). Welsh, Air (3/4 time). C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The melody appears in Edward Jones' (1752-1824) Musical and Poetical Relicks of the Welsh Bards, a volume first published in 1784, and subsequently released in further, ever expanding editions into the 19th century. Jones was born at Lladerfel, near Bala in north Wales, but at the age of twenty-two he moved to London, where he established a musical career for nearly half a century.
