Play it 'wit SOUL (Part 2)

One of my all-time favorite Frankie Gavin selections, this beautiful jig is on his "Frankie Goes To Town" CD (a MUST- OWN CD, if ever there was one!) In the liner notes, if memory serves, he got the tune from fiddler Donal O'Connor of County Kerry. Probably the most soulful & relaxed I've ever heard Frankie play. Goes quite well with another jig I posted recently "The Humors of Clare". Enjoy!

You've misspelt the tune's name. It's already listed here.

Belles of Liscarroll

In O'Neill's collection, this is the "Belles," not the "Walls" of Liscarroll, which is a different jig also in the book. The tunes are related, or at least some people think they are. See Andy Kuntz's "Fiddlers Companion" website for abc's and more info on both tunes.
