X:1 T:Eva's Tune T:Eva Drody's Tune N:Eva Drody, via the playing of fiddler Glenn Patterson. Laura Risk learned N:the tune in the key of 'G' from Ernest Drody in 2010, according to Glenn. N:Douglastown fiddler Erskine Morris played the tune in 'D', in ADae tuning. N:Eva Drody would always step-dance to the tune, played by members of the Drody N:family, and the original name (now lost) became supplanted by "Eva's Tune".
