Kilfenora Jigs (Number 1)

This is the first in the series of three jigs made famous by the great Kilfenora Ceili Band of the fifties and is also sometimes called Paddy's Return (See also Numbers 2 & 3) as ideally they should always be played together.

Kitty Lie Over?

Mick O'Brien and Caoimhin O Raghallaigh play this as the title track on their new album Kitty Lie Over.

Note: the first link directly above, #947, is 2-parts but contributed in the order BBAA... #6083 is given as AABB because that is the more common order of the tune parts in historic transcription as I have it so far...
