Tune ID Frankie Kennedy

Tune ID Frankie Kennedy

What is the first tune Frankie plays before the Ambrose Malloney reel in the wonderful set at
http://www.firescribble.net/FrankieMaireadDaithi.mp3

His jokes at the beginning of the recording are not very helpful and it sounds pretty familiar, but doesn't ring the bell...

I heard that tune on a CD the other day, I'm sure it was labelled as a barn dance. "Altan" may have recorded it. I'll try to find it again, but somebody might beat me to it.

I think it might be on "Dog Big And Dog Little"

It's called Jimmy Duffy's Barndance. Also know as Eddie Duffy's Barndance. http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/1920

This query prompted me to going back to listen to some of "Altan's" recordings with Frankie, and reminding myself what a great player he was, By a sad coincidence, this request was made 1 day over 17 years since he died on September 19th 1994. RIP, Frankie.
