Does anyone know of any pairs of tunes (especially well-known)which share identical A or B (or AB crossover, or even stretching to C parts?

Gilderoy/The Red Haired Boy/King of the Fairies and several more with the same A part.

Not sure what your classifications mean, but "same" tunes, far too many to mention. Mike

I have two versions of 'Flowers of Edinburg' with the same B music and different A music , though the Chord s in both As are the same

Close, but no cigar I'm afraid - the first 4 bars of the A music are indeed identical but the rest is quite different. They're not even the same length.
