Mayo Lasses

A very simple reel from the recently-released CD by Harry Bradley and Michael Clarkson. [ Highly recommended, if you don't have it already. ] I've put in 3-note triplets, but they're optional, never compulsory. There is a slightly different version of this tune in Pat Mitchell's book of Willie Clancy's tunes.

Another nice tune, Kenny. It's quite close to Johnny's Gone to France/Old Maids of Galway

especially the B part.
