I was asked if I knew a tune last night, and it seems that I do, but I have no idea where I got it from, or what it's called. I think it's pretty well-known, but I'm stumped. I'm a bit of an obsessive name-collector, as you may have guessed. Still, no harm. Any ideas? It's a G Major jig, as follows:
dcA G3 |AGF G3 |dcA GFG| ADE FGA etc. etc.
Thanks.

Re: Tune Name
Many thanks. I must have picked it up from the Mary Bergin or Vallely recordings.
