Duplicated?

Sounds just like a version of the Hills Of Glenorchy to me http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/842

The Hillside

Don't know where it is from or, if anyone plays it but it's a nice little tune I think it's Irish. In the second part I thinks its got a dotted rhythm but I don't know where. Hope you like it

According to the Fiddler's Companion, it's in Mike Raven's book of English dance tunes.
