Doyle’s (7149), Jimmy Doyle’s, Maurice O’Keeffe’s, Polc Uí Dhúil, Polca Uí Dhubhghaill, The Abbey Ceili Band (15461), The Abbey Ceili Band Polka No. 2… Which has been, with this submission (17795), here in triplicate, see previous numbers…

Re: Tom Billy’s

I apologize for the triplicate but I was first searching with the name, with the abc, and even the Reverend Abc Tune Search http://abctunesearch.com/ was unable to find the tune. So I believed it was not already here…
How do you proceed to find these numbers ?
