Does anyone know the name of the first jig they play (paired with Nipper) on the 7th track?

Alan Pittwood:
Pepper in the brandy

It is the first tune in track one of both these CDs by The John Kirkpatrick Band

Force of Habit  Fledg'ling Records FLED 3007 (1996)
The Complete John Kirkpatrick Band  Fledg'ling Records FLED 3091 (a double CD compilation, 2013)

where it is paired with The Sweet-Coloured Linnet

Robin:
Hi Alan,

Thanks.
I Know Pepper in the Brandy is the name of the 1st track. It's also on Going Spare (Free Reed Records FRR 030 (LP, UK, 1978)).

But I'm looking for the name of the 1st Jig on the 7th track  (:) (attached files)

Otherwise known (among Lizzie Dripping musicians) as 'Dennis is a bastard'.
Who Dennis is, or was, and how he earned his soubriquet, remains a mystery. But the words fit the tune, which we use for one of our dances.

Hi Robin,

I don't recognize it from any of JK's albums, and I checked my copy of his "Jump at the Sun" tunebook (which does contain some tunes that don't have readily available recordings) and I don't see it in there either.

Thanks for the link to the concert recording - I snagged that as quick as I could. 8)
