In our recent investigations of late Colonial - Early American music that works quite naturally on the banjo we found this 18 Century jig in the Perkins Manuscript (1790). Site members James Pentecost, Mark Weems, Bryant Henderson, and Jack Whaley in a recent gathering in Durham, NC.

I had a moment where I couldn't find it either..just searchers error. I am settling in today and learning it. Thanks again guys for sharing.
Can I buy a vowel?
Silas,
I'm going to work on a tab version very soon which will also have the notation - I'll send you a copy
Mark what a great song to fine and bring back to life. I can hear a flute or violin playing right along with it as well. I would of course like to get a copy of the tabs if you have it. Again a great find and nice job of performing.
Hello! Thanks for sharing. Yes; I'd also love to see the original score, to try my hand at it, if you do have it. Also--was there a name on that piece, or did you give it that title?
It's mentioned in Epstein and yes, that is its original name
So, Alain Locke did not coin that phrase after all; eh?
