Billy Rush`s JIg

This is a tune as played by Danny O`Donnell.
sometimes a tune sticks in your head as soon as you hear it,and this one`s stuck so fast I can`t play it any other way.

Here’s a transcription of the tune in C major: https://thesession.org/tunes/2313

In Amaj, not Dmaj

Despite the lack of positive evidence in the form of G sharps, the tune is clearly in Amaj not in Dmaj. The tune appears on the Northumbrian-Irish band Cúig’s album Prospect as “Martin Mullvihill’s”. In the somewhat Northumbrian key of Emaj.
