think the Erin Go Bragh/Duncan Campbell I have heard would have come originally from Jimmy .MacBeath...

Steve, I just managed to track down Jimmy MacBeath's 'Erin Go Bragh', and to me it sounds lot like 'Villikins'. Do I have the right one? I'd always assumed that Bert's tune for 'Peru' was his own invention.
