SAILING BACK OF WHIDDY (Ag seolad taob le Faoit). Irish, Air (4/4 time). C Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB.

James O'Neill

Composed by fiddler James O’Neill (1863-1949), originally from County Down & Belfast), who, while a sergeant on the Chicago police force in the first decade of the twentieth century, collaborated with Captain Frances O’Neill on the seminal compendium Music of Ireland (1903). Whiddy Island is in Bantry Bay, near Francis O'Neill's childhood home in Munster. It seems an odd title for such an Ulster-sounding tune, with its Scottish influences.
