Details ABC Sheetmusic Comments

Courtown Harbour

From the album "The Mulcahy Family." They follow this jig with Charlie Lennon's "Smiling Bride Jigs" (The Smiling Bride & The Handsome Young Maidens).

The Mulcahy Family is from West Limerick: Mick Mulcahy (accordion) and daughters Michelle (harp, concertina) and Louise (uilleann pipes, flute). This is one of the best traditional albums I've ever heard.

I just received my own copy of the Mulcahy Family CD. The liner notes state that this tune was composed by fiddle player Jimmy McHugh who lives in Glasgow.
