"Boil the Breakfast Early, in Gaelic Ullmuig An Prim-Beile Go Moc, also known as<br> "Court Her Along the Road", "The Lasses' Fashion", "Peadar's Reel" or "Wild Irishman" is an<br> Irish reel in G Major. The parts are played AB (O'Neill, Stanford/Petrie, Vallely),<br> AA'BB' (Harker) or ABC (Alewine, Mulvihill). The reel is popular with uilleann pipers.<br> Notice that the A and B parts end on the IV chord leading into the next part so the<br> tune has the feel of one continuous part.<br> It was printed in Alewine's Maid that Cut Off the Chicken's Lips (1987),<br> Feldman & O'Doherty's The Northern Fiddler (1979),<br> Harker's 300 Tunes from Mike Rafferty (2005),<br> Mulvihill's 1st Collection (1986),<br> O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland: 1001 Gems (1907),<br> Stanford/Petrie's Complete Collection (1905),<br> Treoir, vol. 34, No. 4 (2002) and<br> Vallely's Play 50 Reels with Armagh Pipers Club (1982). <br> It was recorded by The Chieftains on The Best of the Chieftains (1992),<br> Leo Rowsome (1966),<br> Paddy Glackin & Robbie Hannan on The Whirlwind (1995). <br>
