This sounds like the hornpipe Back of the Haggard, under a different name?

Actually I think O'Beirne's is quite a bit different. Definitely worth a separate entry.

I agree, it's a different tune. Is this tune any relation to Ed Reavy's Lad O'Beirne's hornpipe?

I got this tune from my fiddle teacher Jode Dowling. He didn't know the name, but Paddy O'Brien says that it is called O'Beirne's Hornpipe and also the Lietrim Fancy.
