Sollus Lillis/Boys of Tulla or some relation?

good point...

I've been trying to figure out if this tune called Taylor's from Monks of the Screw is already in the database:

it's also similar

I've got a recording of John Doherty playing this - not the Sollus Lillis version, definitely related though. I think if my memory serves me right he might have stuck some sharpy fs in the 2nd part.
