Re: Planxty 2004 tunes

The second tune in the Clare Jig set is called Nora Crionna. Great tune.

For the sake of completedness, here are some of the other sets on the album

The tunes in the Starting Gate set are
Lafferty's AKA The Glens of Aherlowe
The Pullet AKA The Boys of Portaferry
The Lady's Pantalettes AKA The Duke of Leinster's Wife.

The tunes in the Vicar Street Reels set are
Jenny's Wedding
The Virginia Reel
Garrett Barry's Reel

That's one of my favourite albums, and the one that first got me into trad music.
