That is very good, Blunt. A tune I know very well, and which I've played often, but never in public as my mates always tended to go for the "easier" Carolan tunes. If you can find it, the Chieftains did a great version of it. If you like that one, another great Carolan one to try is Morgan Magan. You'll love it!

Has quite a book of tunes, he played the harp.   This one is called Mrs. Judge and is very nice, she must have been a great woman.   This was recorded on my iPhone, so easy.
