John J Kimmel's Favourite
Transcribed (hopefully accurately) from Disk 2, Across the Waters: Irish Traditional Music from England http://www.thesession.org/recordings/display.php/843
Note, the abc I posted has alternate endings like this:
[1,3 and [2,4
Hopefully Whatever Jeremy uses to make the sheet music can handle that. I use abcm2ps, and it works, but concertina.net's tune-o-tron converter can't handle it. If it comes out bad, I'll resubmit.

Kimmel's, now rewritten
Well, tune-o-tron didn't complain, but if you look carefully, the alternate endings didn't get handle properly. I have since rewritten it as a true hornpipe, with only first and second endings, so anything should be able to handle it well.
Resubmitting ...

All those NOTES. I feel...ill...
I impressed with your transcribing tenacity, Fyffer.

Use the abc, not the sheet music
After my original posting of the tune, I decided to rework it from a 12/8 to a 4/4 hornpipe. There should be no difference in the sound, but from a music-reading POV, the current should be better. Jeremy informed me that once the sheet music is generated, that's that, so do your own if you want the probably correct hornpipe, 4/4 version.
