Can anyone help with info/comments on this tune and what to call it?
I have two recordings of it. One is a two- part tune called 'Frieze Britches'. Which is by that fine group Sin é, on their first CD called Sin é and forms part of a set called 'Freeze Bitches'. They jokingly claim that this is a 'gangsta rap' and so named when one of their members miss-heard the title of the traditional tune.
The other is as a five- part tune called 'The Friar's Breeches', by Dave Swarbrick.
