Also known as "Black and Grey" under which title it<br> was first printed in The Dancing Master 7th edition (1786)<br> and was retained in all subsequent editions through the 18th (1728).<br> It also appears in John Walsh's Compleat Country Dancing Master,<br> editions of 1718, 1731 and 1754 and Johnson's Wright's Compleat<br> Collection of Celebrated Country Dances, vol. 2 (1742).<br> "Black and Grey" appears in the 1790 music manuscript collection of<br> Cheapside, London, musician Thomas Hammersley. The alternate title<br> "Trip to Kilburn" is also in common use today for the melody, stemming<br> from its association with a country dance by that name. The melody<br> is not the similarly-titled Northumbrian tune "Black and the Grey".<br> It was recorded on The English Country Dancing Master, vol. 2<br> by The Telemann Society and A Trip to Kilburn by The Baltimore Consort.<br>
