The Perfect Cure - Anglo Concertina
Channel: Anglo Concertina
Date: 2022-10-19

The Perfect Cure started out as a schottische, but soon also appeared as a jig.  It has become a popular tune for country dance and in English traditional music sessions.
It was written originally as a tune for a jumping song and performed by J.H. Stead in the music halls of London.  Mr Stead's unique feat was to jump - both feet off the ground - 400 times after each chorus.
Played here in C on a Marcus Traveller C/G 21 button Anglo Concertina.
