It's Angeline the Baker.

I've always heard "Flowers of Edinburgh" as a reel. I love that one, too. I also love "Angus Campbell", but I believe it's a 'wrote tune' (not that that's bad, of course), as is, I think, "Dancing Bear".

"Shag Poke", "Marquis of Huntley", "Miller's", "June Apple", "Big Scioty", "Danced All Night With A Bottle in my Hand", "Tater Roll", "Waterbound", "Texas Gals", "Salt River", "Little Billy Wilson", "Western COuntry/Susannah Gal/Pretty Little Dog", and, of course, "COTTON-EYED JOE"!

Is "Booth Shot Lincoln" a reel? IT's a great tune, too
