BOB WITH THE ONE HORN [1]. Scottish; Reel or Rant. USA, New England. G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Tolman probably got his version from Kerr, who lists it at the end of his section of Irish reels. This seems either to be a mistake, perhaps of the printer, for the reel appears to be Scottish, or else it is an Irish reworking of the Scots tune "Ewie Wi' the Crookit Horn." Tolman, taking his cue from Kerr, lists the tune as "Irish".

Printed sources: Kerr (Merry Melodies), vol. 4; No. 187, p. 21. Tolman (Nelson Music Collection), 1969; p. 21.
