Calico's version of this is really quirky. It's got 4 parts, and they also do the ABABCBABCB described above.

Crehan's Kitchen

I was looking through the "latest comments" for the tunes section here and Dow's comments and versions for this tune were on the page. I've been looking for this tune for a long time. No, not to learn it, I already knew it. But having heard "Crehan's Kitchen" played by Catherine McEvoy on "The Flute Players of Roscommon" I knew there was another title on it, and this is it.
