Gday from OZ I am trying to locate at least one other 6/8 jig in 6 bar phrases to go with the "Silly Old Man" I have for a dance named for Captain Bligh. It is for a Heritage Ball that is coming up in Sydney. The dance and tune were unearthed by Heather Clarke. Her website is worth a look www.colonialdance.com.au if colonial dance and music is your thing. Bligh is known for being deposed as governor of New South Wales and for having his ship "The Bounty" taken over by mutineers. The abc for the tune I have is: X:1 T:Silly Old Man M:6/8 L:1/8 K:Gmaj D/2E/2|"G"G2G Gge|dBG A2G|"Am"ABd e2a|"G"GBG gfe|dBG ABd|"Em"BAG E2:| |:g|"G"gdg gbg|"D"fed ede|"Em"gab a2g|"G"gab abg|"D"fed efg|"G"dBG "D"A2:| Thanks
