Yes please

This is one of my favorite tunes to play. Again I gave no ornaments, I figure that cam come later in discussion. Anyway I learned this as "Do You Want Anymore" and play it on (gasp!) the recorder, 'cause it's just so much fun, & makes me look like I'm playing faster than I am. :) I didn't know there was another name for it until I heard Cillian & Niall Vallely play it in concert as a reel... the Collier's Reel. Niall swears a lot of people play it but he can't remember who. Both versions are great. I've noticed that all the copies I can find online are very different from what we play, so I thought I'd share this way.

Cheers!

Not a jig on Windy Gap

Laurence Nugent plays the reel version on The Windy Gap, not this version. It's accredited to him on the details as a jig.
Just a silly detail.
Love the tune - often comes (as a reel) up in Lancaster session. Might try upsetting everyone by launching into the jig instead.

Related to...

the melodic contour is reminiscent of Garrett Barry's http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/544 (indeed the last bars of the 1st part are the same)
