Tune analysis: The tune has a full 7 note or heptatonic scale. Note that all of the Bs above the keynote of C are flattened
whereas the Bs immediately below the keynote are natural. If all the Bs were flattened the key would be C Mixolydian. If all
the Bs were natural the key would be C major (C Ionian). As it stands, however, the tune is a Mixolydian/Ionian hybrid.
