Another 16th Century 'Playford' English country dance tune. Accordion - Edward Jay (http://www.EdwardJay.co.uk), Violin - Fiona Barrow. 'Maggot' in this sense actually means 'ear worm', a 16th century term of endearment for a catchy tune. Special thanks to Chris Baker, owner of Woodland Memorial (Alveston, Bristol) for the use of his fabulous chapel.

  • Are you actually based in Bristol? We would really like to know how much you charge to play for a Playford Ball (In Suffolk), but it's in March and we see you were touring this March. This is for the 2nd Saturday in March 2011.

  • This is a beautiful treatment of this simple but haunting tune. I have heard it several times as melodeon type tune -you give it a kind of courtly dance feel and you definitely bring something new to it . Excellent playing both

    All the best
