Watch the Leeds Ceili Band play this V. Broderick tune: http://comhaltas.ie/music/detail/comhaltaslive_216_1_leeds_ceili_band

In Leeds I often heard it played by Mrs. Helen Flaherty, the PA player in the clip. She's an astonishing musician with a good stock of lesser-known modern compositions penned by Marcus Hernon, V. Broderick, Sean Ryan, etc.
