DUBLIN LASSES [2] (Gearrchailiú Bhaile Átha Cliath). AKA and see "Dublin Reel (2) (The)," "Eight and Forty Sisters," "Maids of Galway," "Murtough Molloy," "Tie the Ribbons [2]," "Walls of Limerick [2]." Irish, Reel. E Dorian. Standard tuning. AB (Breathnach): AA'BB'(Kerr). No relation to "Dublin Lasses" [1]. O'Neill prints the tune under the title "Murtough Molloy," while Elias Howe gives it as "The Dublin Reel." The 'B' part of "Dublin Lasses" appears as the 'B' part of "Eight and Forty Sisters" in Darley & McCall's Feis Ceoil Collection of Irish Airs (1914). Other related tunes are "Dowd's/O'Dowd's Favourite," "The Flowers in May," "The Ladies Pantaloons," "The Scotch Hunt" "Trim the Bonnet" and "The Rover [4]" (Breathnach, 1996). See also an untitled related tune in Breathnach's CRÉ II (1976), No. 286. The famous Sliabh Luachra fiddler Denis Murphy played this tune under the "Dublin Lasses" title. Leitrim flute player John McKenna had it as "Maids of Galway."

Source for notated version: fiddler Tommy Potts (Ireland) [Breathnach].
