Re: Jig title

Looks like the Killavel jig.

No it ain't that. If I had time, I'd get it for you now. Someone will have it by the time I can get around to it ... in about 14 hours time!

Re: Jig title

Exactly the same first two bars as the Killavel, whatever it is..

Thanks for the help. Looks like it's listed here as "The Trip to Killavill"

Re: Jig title

It's got to be Killavill. I Googled the ABC for the first two bars, along with "jig", and got 30 hits, with no other tune mentioned. Strangely, however, the last three hits linked to an English discount furniture store website, despite having the ABC for Killavill in the summary that Google provides.

Check out The Mug of Brown Ale on the tune base. It's got the same sequence of notes but in Adorian.

Not quite, Free Reed. In Ador, Killavill goes eAA eAA | egb age
and Mug of Brown Ale goes eAA fAA | ~g3 age.

Re: Jig title

This is the Killavil Jig without a doubt.

If you want to hear a lovely version of the Killavil jig, search YouTube for Patsy Hanley...
