Another recording

This tune is also on Laurence Nugent's CD "Two For Two" (http://bit.ly/d7WGmJ). Amazon lists it as track 14: "Banks of the Suir / Lois Na Banriona (The Fort of the Fairy Queen)," though I have it as track #15 out of 16. It's a very nice track; "Banks of the Suir" is a beautiful air and beautifully played, and it's a great lead-in to this tune.
