Jim Wards #1
Learned this from the bouzouki playing of Ciarán Curran from the Album Runaway Sunday. This was the first tune in a set of two that is called Ciarán's Capers, both learned from Jim Ward.
It has a nice sprightly feel to it, quite caperish.
I'll have the next one up soon.

Cormac, as far as I know, the second tune is also just "Jim Ward's". All that Durran has said was they were learnt from the eponymous bloke himself.
