CARTY'S REEL (Ríl an Chárthaigh). AKA – "Carthy's Reel (1)." AKA and see "Castle (1) (The)," "Hut in the Bog (2)," "Kathy's Reel," "Micho Russell's Reel (1)." Irish, Reel. E Minor ('A' part) & G Major ('B' part). Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB'. A variant of "The Ashplant" and the only known composition of Doolin, County Clare, tin whistle player Micho Russell (1915–1944). It is commonly known as "Micho Russell's Reel" although, according to Charlie Piggott (Blooming Meadows, 1998), Russell himself called it "Carthy's Reel." The tin-whistle player, known for his weaving stories, lore and associations into his music, and not above some purposeful playing with the tradition, said he had long ago learned it from an old man named Carthy. "At the time there used to be such a thing on the Aran Island called a Pattern Day (June 14th). People from here used to go over in curraghs.
