Up the Walls of the World

I learnt this in a workshop by the English fiddler Flos Headford. I don't think he knew exactly where it came from, but he reckoned it might be Irish. Reagardless of where it comes from, I reckon its a lovely tune.

It's by Martin Reese & Paul Thomson; Red Shift played it on their 1987 "Back in the Red". Great tune; I got obsessed with it last year when I heard Paul Burgess play it, then Flos; and no sign of a cure yet, I'm pleased to say.
