OK, Rob. Kevin’s reply via email is below:
“Hi Rob,
As Casey said, slip jigs are indeed in 9/8 time , as opposed to 6/8 for a regular jig (formally known as a “Double Jig”). Why the word “slip” is used for those particular tunes, unfortunately I’ve no idea.
Best wishes,
Kevin”
I hope that provides the clarity you are looking for, sir. Thanks!!!
