Another one of Brian Finnegan tunes, I'm assuming.
This one I transcribed from the only track on Brian's myspace page, played before his likely well-known "Night Ride to Armagh", here:

I'm not too particular to this version of the reel, perhaps just a bit too experimental to me... but this tune I thought was just gorgeous.

It's played with swing, but I gave up trying to put it in the ABC's, as some parts were just a pain in the butt trying to get right.

If anyone has the name and confirmation of who composed it, that would be lovely.

Breda Smyth's ;-) Not really, just what it will be known for me for the time being
