A nice jig composed by John Doyle
He plays this one on his latest solo album "wayward son".
From booklet notes :
The glad eye is a funny expression for the roving eye.

Not so glad on the flute
The tune is amazingly beautiful and Sylvain Barou plays it on the flute on his CD live Guidewires but it's not an easy tune on the flute at all, Gminor. You have to use the f, Bb and Eb keys a lot. It worth trying anyway.
