MORRISON'S (HORNPIPE). AKA and see "Jack O'Neill's Fancy," "Jim Coleman's (5)," "Parker's Fancy," "Sweeney's Hornpipe (1)," "Sweep's Hornpipe (2) (The)." Irish, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Francis O'Neill printed the tune in his Waifs and Strays (1922), collected from Chicago musician John "Jack" O'Neill, and gave it the title "Jack O'Neill's Fancy." County Sligo fiddler Michael Coleman recorded the hornpipe in New York as using Chief O'Neill's title, however, the tune is also known as "Jim Coleman's (5)", presumably named for Michael's flute-playing brother. No one name has become attached to the tune: Hugh Gillespie recorded it as "Parker's Fancy," and Breathnach printed it as "An Scuabire" (Sweep's Hornpipe (2) (The)) noting its similarity to "Sweeney's Hornpipe (1)."
