O'Keeffe's Mother

This tune comes from Bohola's "4" album, preceded by
Callipygian http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/7053 and
Hoban's On 63rd http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/8002

The tune is almost entirely pentatonic, and has echoes of a few other tunes. Most closely related, however, is
James McMahon's http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/6138
in which the A part is practically identical, but the B part is quite different.
