This version is by Seamus Egan .
Album : Mick Moloney, Eugene O’Donnell, Seamus Egan :
" 3 Way Street ". ( green linnet GLCD1129 ).
Seamus Egan play this tune as a reel, but I prefer to play it as a slow reel.
This tune is in "Jerry Holland’s Collection of Fiddle Tunes" and it was composed by luthier Otis Thomas.

The first part has real character. I like it! Not sure about the rest, perhaps it’s meant to be played by a musician with a strong will.
