This tune is a Donegal highland. I learnt it from Jill Elliot in Bristol, England and transcribed it, with her permission, from her teaching performance. It follows on well from Jimmy Lyons, another Donegal highland on this website.

Kissin' 'highland' cousins, basically the same tune with some nice choices for variations - and - originating with 'the man', Mr. James Scott Skinner...
