John McClure's
John McClure's is a traditional fiddle reel in 4/4 time with no verified composer or specific historical associations on record. The tune is set in the D mixolydian mode, giving it a characteristic modal flavor typical of many traditional Scottish and Irish fiddle melodies. Because its precise geographic origin and early history remain uncertain, it is primarily appreciated today for its lively tempo and rhythmic bounce in session playing.
