The North Wind

Favourite tune of the moment, this is a march, but is very close to a hornpipe. From "Teada's" "La An Dreoilin" CD, sleeve notes say it came from O'Neill's "Waifs And Strays". A gem!

"The North Wind Schottische"

This also works, with little change but swingin', as a good barndance / schottische...
