WADDLING GANDER. AKA and see "Stool of Repentance." Irish, Jig (6/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. A setting of the Scottish jig "Stool of Repentance" learned by Bronx flute player Jack Coen [1] (1925-2012) from his concertina-playing father in Woodford, County Galway.

The first strain is quite similar to "Fiddler's Whim (1)," but the tune is rather simple and the correspondence is probably not intentional.
