Another McSweeney's

This is a different tune to the one called McSweeney's already on this site. It's a common enough tune in Donegal. It's got a really catchy but simple second part. I was looking for it here and couldn't find it so I put the first few notes of the tune in a google search and hey presto, I found it on IRTRAD.

Not "McSweeney's", and duplicated....

I posted "McSweeney's" here from an "Altan" recording. I'm not able to check the "Horse With A Heart" recording at the moment, but I'm pretty sure that the reel you've posted here is not "McSweeney's", but the tune they play before it, which has already been posted here, although there is some doubt, apparently, about the original title - see below:
