DURANG'S HORNPIPE NO. 2. AKA - "Durang's Hornpipe (3)." AKA and see "Wobble Gears." American, Reel. USA, Missouri. D Major (Adam): G Major (Beisswinger). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (Adam): AA'BB' (Beiswenger). The "Durang's" melody appears to have wandered much in the folk process in this variant, with a quite unique 'B' part. Beisswenger & McCann (2008) suggest that there was a core "Durang's" tune (similar to "Durang's Hornpipe (1)"), and that any regional (Missouri) variant would be called by custom "Durang's No. 2" i.e. the "other" Durang's. Gordon McCann reports that source Galbraith connected his version to "London Hornpipe," while Mark Wilson believes it resembles "Rocky Mountain Goat."
