The Old Vest and Cravat
This tune is in O'Neill's collection, but there's a more interesting version in the Roche Collection, one that includes a lot of accidentals and probably wouldn't suit the pipes at all. For more info on the faction fighting gangs "Shanavest" and "Caravat," see the notes on this tune on the "Fiddler's Companion" website.

A lot of accidentals-- some blurriness between minor/dorian/harmonic minor going on. I like it.

A couple versions of it here (including the one I posted-- looks like I could've saved some time figuring out the ABCs...), plus some notes:
