HUMORS OF LISADEL {Pléaráca Lios an Daill}. AKA "Humours of Lissadell." AKA and see "Musical Bridge (The)." Irish, Reel. E Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Lissadell is a place name from County Sligo, the subject of some of the writings of the poet Yeats. The tune was the composition of the great fiddler John McGrath (1900-1965) of Co.
