Jesse Smith
Another great tune from The Gift CD by Jerry O'Sullivan. It is probably closer to a Strathspey than a Reel.

Why do I think I've heard this on like a dozen Cape Breton CDs? Would have figured those recordings would have popped up as having this tune, but maybe there just aren't that many CB CDs posted on this site. Could always go by a different name I guess too. Anywho.

This is a great tune, but as ceolachan points out it's actually a strathspey and it is D major - all these c's are sharp.
