Back to Ranger's Hornpipe (2)
RANGER'S HORNPIPE [2]. Old-Time, Breakdown. D Major (‘A’ part) & A Major (‘B’ part). Standard tuning (fiddle). The reel is similar to the well-known "Flop Eared Mule (2)" in the first strain, but the second strain is irregular (13 mearsures) and quite a bit more distanced.
