The Darling Girl From Clare

A lovely barndance we’ve been playing at session lately, which I believe is originally from a song. Here’s Frankie Gavin and Martín O’Connor playing it:

This version is a mostly un-ornamented version of what they play.

Goodness, you’re right, thanks Jeff! I realized now that the one I posted was the one that “auto-played” after the one you linked, and I inadvertently copied the wrong URL. Thanks for catching that!
