This is a hard find. But I call it "Padgin O'Rafferty's" Dezi Donnelly recorded it some time ago on his "Familiar Footsteps album in G"

I can't locate a written version of it, but it should be noted that Breen is playing it in A.

Yeah, her's is in A. Its a perfect copy of Dezi's G version. It does have similarities to the one FIDDLE4 writes about...
I'll load this specific piece soon. Under that exact name..
"Padgin O'Rafferty's"
