Vincent McGrath Tune

This is another tune off Vincent McGrath’s album “Ó Cheartlar Mo Chroí”. I really like this tune. The sleeve notes from the album say:

“My paternal grandmother, Mary McDonnell (1881 - 1972), was known locally as Mary Alick after her father, Alick McDonnell. She was the greatest musical influence on my life. Her fun-loving nature and love of music and dancing was legendary in the area and she was really a teenager at heart right up to the time of her death.”

Mary Alick’s: Corrections

Sorry about this but I’ve some correcting to do. Curse my untrained ear of 2007. The abc file has been edited.
