The Clare reel - Hayes & Cahill

A pox on these musical acrobats - the simplest tunes are the best ! 1st track on the new(ish) Martin Hayes and Denis Cahill recording, one of the best recordings of Irish traditional music I've ever heard.

I have a feeling I had heard this tune before somewhere under a different title - anyone else?

Donough, I believe you're thinking about "A Fair Wind": http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/2057 Not exactly the same, though.
