Tigh Raifeartaigh (another setting)
This great Michael Rooney composed tune is demonstrated by Garry Shannon on the Comhaltaslive programme (28 March to 3 April 2005) at http://www.comhaltaslive.ie. However, he plays it in G as shown below. On checking Michael's CD "Draiocht" I found that he plays it in "F" so "you pays your money and makes your own choice" !!

That G one is a different tune - Gort Na Mona - not a different setting of this one, altho' they're both v similar.
