To Welcome Paddy Home by Boys Of The Lough

There seems to be different track orders on the US and UK issues of this album (different covers too, if I remember correctly.

Track 2 on this listing is a song, called (on UK issue) "Welcoming Paddy Home". On the UK issue track 2 is the Cape Breton Wedding Reels (track 6 in thesession listing).

The Cape Breton Wedding reels are a common Cape Breton set, also called "Old-Time Wedding Reels 1, 2and 3. No.1 is a variant of an old Scottish strathspey called "John of Badenyon" (see Skye collewction); No.2 is also known as "Och a Chiallain" and "Hamish the Carpenter"; No.3 is also called "Cuir sa Chiste Mhoir Mi" ("Put Me In the Big Chest") and is related to a William Marshall composition called"Miss Cruikshank's Reel".
