Hi folks!  I am working on a project for the next 5-Stringer as well as an evening concert for the Fall Rally.

I have located all of Bolsover Gibbs' compositions except this one.  It has proven difficult to find.  Does anyone have a copy?

It was published in 1889 as #404 in the Stewart catalog for solo banjo and piano accompaniment.

I have found 4 of his compositions in Ellis's Banjo Albums but I only have numbers 5 and 6.  Does anyone have 1-5 or 7+ that would take a look? One of the pieces "Liquid Inspiration Schottische" was published as "Amy Schottische" so it is also possible that if it was published it was under a different name that we would not know.

Please check your stacks!

Thanks in advance!

P.S.  this is not "The Phantom Reel"-- that is a different piece that I have both the SSS as well as the English knockoff.

I'll have look through  the piles of rotting paper

Sorry Joel, I can't find it here but will keep looking!

I've had a good look for this elusive piece this morning but I don't seem to have it.

Thank you all for looking!  I'm going to keep trying to pursue the Library of Congress as I am sure they have it.  The problem is getting it from them.

I have a feeling that there is a reason why it has not been easy to find as it might not be any good.  I'd like to see it anyway.
