BEST SHOT. AKA and see "Fly By Night (2)," "Lancashire Clog Hornpipe." American, Hornpipe. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABA. "Can be used as a Clog," notes Ryan, perhaps taking a clue from the tune as it appeared in Coes Album of Jigs and Reels (1876) under the title "Lancashire Clog Hornpipe." Ryan printed the tune twice in his collection under different titles (see also "Fly By Night (2)"). See note for "annotation:American Rifle Team" for possible connection
