Re: Vicar Street reels

I think the first reel is "Jenny's Wedding" and is also on Planxty's "The Well Below the Valley". Don't know what the second one is. Love this album!

The Kildareman's Fancy

Does anybody know where I can find any sheet music for this song, or a different name under which I can find it?

Kildareman`s Fancy

The Kildareman`s Fancy is a set of 3 tunes:
Jenny`s Wedding, The virginia ("some people call it The Virginian, but it`s not!"), & Garret Barry`s Reel.
All of these tunes are on this site, the correct Garret Barrys Reel is the one listed as Ador, even though it sounds like it is Gmaj.

The 2nd tune in the 3rd track of "Planxty Live 2004"

Hello, everyone:
Having listened many times to the 3rd track of Planxty 2004 album, now I play this tune, which follows The Clare Jig (or Mug of Brown Ale). But, what a pity that I can't figure out the name of it ! Anyone, please?

Vicar street / Kildareman's Fancy tune names

I think the Jenny's Wedding / The Virginia / Garret Barry's set is track 6, not track 11....so what are the tunes in Kildareman's Fancy - the second is very familiar but I can't put a name to it.

Kildareman's Fancy

Answering my own question...
Re: Track 11 - I think 2nd tune is Chattering Magpie, and 3rd tune is Lord McDonald....

...so I expected the 1st tune to be "The Old Wheels of the World" as those 3 are together on another album, but it sounds like a different tune.

Starting Gate

The three reels in Track 1 called the Starting Gate are Lafferty's, the Boys of Portaferry and the Ladies Pantalletes.

# Posted on August 29th 2009 by concertinabob

Kildareman's Fancy

The first tune sounds very familiar allright BrownAdam, did you ever find its name? It's tearing me up now!

You're right that 2nd and 3rd are Chattering Magpie and Lord MacDonalds

Kildareman's Fancy

The first reel in that set must be Corney is Comming, no?
