AKA and see "[[Crusheen (The)]]," "[[Jim Seery's]]," "[[Kildoney Lasses (The)]],” “[[Peter Kennedy's Fancy]],” "[[Pigeon on the Gate (10) ]]," "[[Shearing the Sheep (1)]].” Irish, Reel. Ireland, County Sligo, west Kerry. G Major (Cranitch, Flaherty, Moylan, Mulvihill, Taylor): A Major (Cranitch). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Cranitch, Flaherty, Moylan, Taylor): AA’BB (Mulvihill). A popular session reel, correctly classified as a single reel. Taylor (1992) notes that the tune on page 105 of Bernard Flaherty's '''Trip to Sligo''' (1990) is very closely related to "Red-Haired Lass," though "nonetheless incompatible." It is a classic tune recorded during the 78 RPM era by the master Sligo fiddler James Morrison with Leitrim flute player John McKenna (who paired it with another single reel they called "[[Tailor's Thimble (2) (The)]]”). The rather obscure fiddler Joseph Tansey of Gurteen, County Sligo, also recorded the tune in the 78 RPM era, calling it "[[Crusheen (The)]]" (Crusheen is the name of a village in County Clare, but the title could also be a Anglicized version of the Irish ''crúiscín'', meaning 'jug'). The reel was entered into Book 2 of the large c. 1883 music manuscript collection of County Leitrim fiddler and piper [[biography:Stephen Grier]] (c. 1824-1894) under the title "[[Pigeon on the Gate (10)]]." | |||
