BEHIND THE BUSH IN THE GARDEN [1] (Taob-iar De'n Sgeac Annsa Gairdin). AKA and see &quot;The Bargain is Over,&quot; &quot;The Bush Below da Garden&quot; (Shetland), &quot;Fy Buckle Your Belt,&quot; &quot;I Won't Do the Work&quot; (Cape Breton), &quot;I Sat in the Valley Green,&quot; &quot;The Kerry Jig,&quot; &quot;Laistiar den Tom sa Ghairdín,&quot; &quot;More Power to Ye,&quot; &quot;Over the River to Charlie [2],&quot; &quot;Royal Charlie,&quot; &quot;Se'n Righ atha ahuin is fear linn&quot; (We Prefer Our Own King), &quot;A' Sníubh Ullan na gCaoire&quot; (Spinning the Wool of the Sheep), &quot;The Tidy Woman,&quot; &quot;Times Are Mighty Hard,&quot; &quot;We Have No King But Charley,&quot; &quot;Wha'll (Who'll) Be King But Charlie.&quot; Irish, Single or Double Jig. A Minor or C Mixolydian (S. Johnson, O'Neill, Songer, Treoir): D Minor (Stanford/Petrie). Standard tuning. AAB (O'Neill/1915, Songer): ABB' (Stanford/Petrie): AABB (Carlin, S. Johnson, Sweet, Treoir): AABB' (O'Neill/Krassen, 1001 & 1850). The tune was recorded on a 78 RPM disk by Packie Dolan in September, 1928, for Victor Records in New York, according to Paddy Ryan (Treoir), under the title &quot;Royal Charley.&quot; Dolan (1904-1932, was originally from Aughadowry, Ballinamuck, County Longford, and died tragically at age 28 one week before he was due to return to Ireland to live. Kerry musician Tom Billy Murphy (father of fiddlers Denis Murphy and Julia Clifford) used to play this slide, although it is not often heard in modern times. P. W. Joyce prints the tune as &quot;The Kerry Jig.&quot; Seamus O'Sullivan was of the opinion that the tune was from a song called &quot;A' Sníubh Ullan na gCaoire&quot; (Spinning the Wool of the Sheep), that Paul de Grae feels straddles the boundary between jigs and slides, &quot;or maybe just ignores it.&quot; A variant is published by Feldman & O'Doherty from the playing of Donegal fiddler Danny O'Donnell as &quot;The Bargain is Over&quot; (Tá do Mhargadh Déanta), and in County Down a version can be heard as &quot;Who'll be King but Charlie.&quot; Breathnach (CRÉ III, 1985) prints a variant set as &quot;Paddy Taylor's Fancy&quot; while Lyth gives a variant as &quot;Humours of Kilclogher.&quot; Ken Perlman (1979) believes it is melodically related to the old-time tune &quot;Kitchen Girl&quot; and to the Northumbrian jig &quot;Elsie Marley.&quot; Source for notated version: &quot;As played by Pat Cunningham, a famous W.
