Clogger's Quilt

I have added this tune as one of the tunes on the Dezi Donnelly album 'Familiar Footsteps', that has not yet been posted.
I have the 5th track (Gan Ainm) if anyone wants it sent directly to them as I don't see much point in posting it as a Gan Ainm.

Post it anyway. A name might appear for it sooner or later.

I play this tune in G so it will sit nicely on my flute. Great tune!

Martin Hayes calls this The Swallow, and I've seen it elsewhere under that name.

St. Andrew's

On an "Outlet" label compilation as "Saint Andrew's" reel, I think played by The Sean Ryan Trio. It's also in Bulmer & Sharpley Vol. 3 under this name.

Aka Ballykey Courthouse?

Is this also known as the Ballyket Courthouse, usually played in G? Something like:

A tribute to Michael Coleman

This tune can also be found on Joe Burke's and Andy McGann's album: a Tribute to Michael Coleman. It's great. It doesn't appear in the details due to a typo when the album was submitted.

Another title

NYC fiddler Jackie Roche, student of James Morrison, recorded this in the late 50s on his Avoca LP Irish Violin as Rattigan's. Probably the first recording of it.

This is the one called "Larry Redigan's" on "Music at Matt Molloy's" CD.

Four Men & a Dog

They play this as the last tune in the Mountain Road set. I always thought it quite similar to Tom Ward's downfall. Lovely tune. Prefer it in F than G.

# Posted on February 20th 2008 by PaddyCmusic

Yes, it's nice in F. In our local session, this F tune is played as a different tune from the one in G, which I posted as a separate entry here: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/7678.

Ballyket Courthouse

When Will posted this tune as a duplication in a different key he was mistaken indeed. I've always known B.C as Paddy Finlay's and definitely different to this tune, The Swallow.
