Gan Ainm reel

This is the third tune in the Danu reel set, Track 2 from Ten Thousand Miles. It is likely related to Sporting Paddy but I believe it is unique and I had transcribed it anyway because a friend wanted to learn the Danu set. In the liner notes they say it comes from Mick O’Brien and I also found it in Breathnach CRE5 No. 197 attibuted to Sligo flute player, M.J. Ryan (Micky-Joe?). I’ve seen this as Ryan’s Flute as well.

This is the Breathnach version. The Danu version is backwards.
