Tune name?

No luck with the advanced search. It might be in some weird key, but this is how I remembered it.

Oops, the "ef" on the very end of the first part should be "fg."

Re: Tune name?

no problem. i'm trying to catch on to this ABC stuff- it's nice to actually make sense of it once in a while. I can vaguely recall another tune of the same name in Dm...

That's right. Frankie Gavin recorded the two tunes together on his first LP with Alec Finn backing, if I remember rightly. I think the Tulla band used to play them together, too.
