I can't tell you much about this.  I think of it as one of those common tunes which I never hear.  There a lot of tunes with that air of virtual commonness about their airs (not sure about their grace-notes).

I'm having to jog my memory by flicking through a few books to see the start of tunes.  This particular aide memoir lives in Ceol Rince na hÉireann Vol1.  I'll very likely be looking through Vols 2, 3, 4 (not sure about this one; it has some very strange things in it) and 5 to be reminded of more tunes.

Here's a reel from the playing of Paddy Taylor, a flute player from Abbyfeale in Co. Limerick who played a wooden Bohm flute.

Here's a tune I heard on a Tommy Peoples record a good few years ago. The passage of time might explain how my memory of which note go where has gone who knows where. For a fiddle tune, I think it's OK for the flute.

Here's a jig called "Let us be drinking and kissing the ladies". I haven't really much to say about that.

It's a good jig and a popular one. I believe some things in the title are also popular in certain quarters.

Here's a reel in "C" named after the great, late fiddle player, A McG.

When I play tunes on the flute in "C" there always seems to be a slightly bronchial drainpipe sound going on. Sometimes the flute sounds funny too.

Being a bit parochial, I usually associate this tune with a different, fairly recently lost fiddle player, Seán McGuire.

Maybe I'll just call it McG's reel.

Here's a highland. The playing is a bit more gormless than Gormond here but it is getting late and I find it hard to be otherwise.

This is a fairly common tune.  I hope you like it.

Here's a nice sparce reel Like lots of tunes that Micko Russell played, it is not cluttered by too many notes. So many tunes played these days sound like the putting to sound of a manuscript which just been sneezed on - by someone quite poorly at that.

It's sometimes good to have simple things around too.

Here's a very very very popular jig. One reason it's very very very popular is that it's fairly easy to learn.
