Part of Gneevguilla

The A part of this tune contains the 3rd part of the "Gneevguilla." There was a popular medley; Pride of Rathmore/Girls Of Farranfore that was often played, according to Clare fiddler, Joe Murtaugh. He told me that at some point someone was trying to remember the second tune -- and they couldn't remember all of it -- so part of it became the third part of, "Gneevguilla;" a 3-part tune found here; http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display.php/876
