Jackie McCarthy's
This is transcribed from Yvonne Casey's version on her CD "Yvonne Casey." Fiddle player Jesse Smith uses a low A as the first note of the second half of the first and third measures of the B section.

Duplicated
This is Willie Clancy's version of Allistrum's March: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/6188

C Sharp?
This tune sounds more "right" to me if the C's in the second part are sharped, putting the part squarely in the key of D. I noticed that the versions transcribed from pipers' renditions avoid the issue by not including any C's at all in the second part.
Any other opinions?
BTW I met Yvonne Casey in Doolin during the summer of 2005. She autographed my copy of her CD.

Hi, Slainte - Nice catch on the duplication. I searched for any dupes using the abc's, and Allistrum's didn't come up . . . . . but it sure is the same tune. Learn something new every day!
@ Larry Ayers -- I met her summer of 2008, and she is great!
