I have a strong suspicion this tune is already here somewhere and will get deleted. But I decided to take the chance and post it anyway, prompted by FIDDLE4's query in discussions
http://www.thesession.org/discussions/display/17326 .
Somebody must have a name for this tune.
The version I have posted is more or less as it is played by Michael Clarkson on 'The Far Set' http://www.thesession.org/recordings/display/1057 .
For want of a better title, he calls it 'Reel in G'. The version I have heard in sessions has a pecular syncopated phrase in the B-part, with tied note across bars 9 and 10 and goes something like this:
M: 4/4
L: 1/8
R: reel
K: Gmaj
BcdB G3B | ADFA dcBA | B2dB GFGB | ADFA G3A :|

gfed (3efg a2-|-afge dcBA | BcdB G3B |1 A2FA G3 A:|2 A2FA G2dc||
As far as I remember, it is always played with an 8-bar (4 bars repeated) A-part and a 16-bar (8 bars repeated) B-part.
I think I have heard the title 'Mairtín O'Connor's' used. However, I find both this title and that used by Michael Clarkson unsatifactory, so I'mm putting these both as alternate titles and leaving the main title as Gan Ainm until someone comes up with a better one.
