GO AS YOU PLEASE. American, Hornpipe. B Flat major ('A' part) & F Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. "As performed by G.L. Tracy" states the note in Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883). George Lowell Tracy (1855-1921) was a young man who later composed light opera and composition books, according to musicologist Charles Wolfe. Evidently Tracy arranged music as well, for one publication from the 1880's indicates an Arthur & Sullivan work was arranged by him. "Can be used as a Clog" (Ryan).
