During Bob Ellis's excellent "well known tunes at a steady pace", in the FILO, a tune was played in which the A & B parts were on different rows, A on the G and B on the D row. I remember liking it, but I totally forget what it was called. Any suggestions?

Might it have been one of Walter Bulwer's Polkas? -

My memory is not what it was, but I don't remember us playing either of Walter Bulwer's Polkas in the Well-Known Tunes at a Steady Pace sessions. Tunes that we did play where there is a change of key between the 'A' and 'B' music included the Rochdale Coconut Dance, the Curly Headed Ploughboy and Jenny Lind. Perhaps it was one of these.
