aka. Joe Burke’s #2; The American jig
Tracking down "The American" on "It Was Great Altogether ! : CD#2" (https://thesession.org/recordings/5374) has revealed the above alternative titles for this Gan Ainm.
Pat Burke’s, X:3
This setting from Boston boxplayer Mike Reynolds. I would assume it came from Joe Burke. It’s a nice tune and we play it a fair amount.
