The Boys Of Ballinlough

Picked this up from a friend

Unknown Concertina Tune

I hear another Session member playing this on the concertina at the Sunday Four Green Fields session in Tampa, FL. It sounds like a hornpipe but, unfortunately, what is here is the only way I was able to score the tune.

I’d be grateful if someone can name the tune. One of the hooks sounds like King Of The Faeries but the remainder of the tune does not.

Medley

This would work very nicely with "The Rights of Man"; always nice to find a hornpipe in a minor key.

The Name of The Tune Is Boys of Ballinlough

Thanks to the kind gentleman who plays the tune, its name is: Boys of Ballinlough
