The Longford Collector

Thanks so much for posting this BMaloney-the tune's been driving me mad since I heard Michael Glynn play it at the Jindabyne Fleadh a couple of weeks back here in Oz.I had been doing the advanced search thing trying the notes in my head and getting nowhere until I was looking at the comments for the Tarbolton.
Cheers
Gerry

Seamus egan version

anyone got the notes for wacky variation Seamus Egan plays on the Brothers McMullen soundtrack?

A tax collector? A song collector? Perhaps that's the one tune he went away without!
