This reel comes from East Galway flute player Sean Moloney’s solo album “Potsticks.” It’s the middle tune in my favourite track of the recording. Eddie Moloney was Sean’s father and a renowned flute player.
There isn’t much information on the tune in the notes: it “is an old and rare tune which I got from Eddie.” Eddie Moloney was a quite influential musician, so this tune is maybe on other recordings with a different name.
I have a very bad habit of learning uncommon tunes, but this one is very simple, effective and definitely worth sharing with others.

AKA “The Birmingham.” AKA Eddie Moloney’s #1. It would be helpful if the title could be changed on the CD comments section but I guess that’s too much to ask for.
