SHAW'S REEL. AKA and see “Bashful Bachelor (2) (The),” “Obelisk Hornpipe,” “Where Did You Find Her? (2)” "Wily Old Bachelor (The)" American, Reel (2/4 time). USA; New England, Nebraska. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune was in the repertoire of Nebraska radio fiddler Bob Walters, although probably learned from the Boston-published Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883) and not from tradition.
