Dublin Reel

Nice and energetic (man, I just don't know what to write about these tunes!).

If you link here from the Ireland's Harvest Recording

Beware ...

"The Dublin" on this CD is not the tune here, which is the Dublin Reel. Instead it's The Dublin Hornpipe.

But learn the Dublin Reel anyway. It's a superb tune!

The Dubin Reel

Attributed to Walter Jackson, this tune appears as Jackson's on Peter Horan and Gerry Harrington's new recording. Not sure if it's true.

So, the G major setting is called The Westmeath Hunt: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/2269 Peter Horan recorded both D and G settings together.

And here's another setting of the tune from Co. Fermanagh: http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/1670

The version we play of Jim McCormick's has 5 parts. I'll try and put up the abc here later on.
