Description

This recording is currently marked as S32x3 but the corresponding dance is a jig (and snippets of the track on the web confirm that). From the time 2:43 it would then presumably be J32x5. Can anyone confirm that? Its a rather unusual number of repeats but similar to other tracks on the same album.

Yes, it must be a Jig, but the question remains, is it 4 or 5 times through and WHY not 8 times? Jim Johnstone did 4x32 in 2:16 … I find no detailed references anywhere.

Tadah! The recording could be found on Spotify. Steff Eckert played it over the phone to me - it is a J5x32. Changed the info accordingly.
