Thread Name: Tune Req: Old Ninety Eight
Subject: RE: Old Ninety Eight
Old 98 is also know as Gisburn Processional. This is because when Karples (I think) recorded morris at Gisburn, Yorkshire, this is the tune they used. Is subsequently turned up as a fairly common tune at other places.

In abc notation it looks like this-

X: 1
T:Gisburn Processional
M:6/8
K:G
