"Paddy Cronin’s" ~ another on in the repertoire of Johnny O’Leary

This is just one way with it, simple. It can and is also played in the keys of G & A Major… It’s another one I was surprised not to find here, but it has circulated and has gone through some changes, as happens, so I may have missed it in all the searching… Here’s a short example of other possibilities with this ~

Track 7: "Teahan’s Favourite" / "Paddy Cronin’s"

"Matt Cunningham: Dance Music Of Ireland: Volume 11"

Apologies, I slipped up in submitting this recording and hadn’t seen I missed this, the second tune in the set, when doing the cut-and-paste… 😏 Mea culpa!

c: it is now possible to add atune to the recording tarck X. Just go to the edit mode and add" /Paddy Cronin" to track 7. That’s much better than any "mea culpa" 😉

You’re kidding, change! ~ Halellujah! Thanks! 😉

It worked!!! Thank you Jeremy… Now to check my old recording submissions and see if I screwed up that way anywhere else… I have a vague memory I have at least once previous to this…

c-your a genius in understanding a message with more typos than anything else!!

The tune was the first one taught by Charlie Harris at this year’s Willy Clancy summer school.

He didn’t have a name for it and I’m wondering if anyone else knows more about it.

NOTE: with the above duplication the submission did not show repeats for the A & B parts… I’ve added the |: & :| & a bit of spacing…

Oops! ~ almost forgot dogbox’s comment, valued ~
