Back to Blooming Meadows (1)

BLOOMING MEADOWS [1] (An Moinfeur fionnsgotac). AKA and see "Cover the Buckle," "Down the Hill," "Down with the Tithes (1)," "Hag and Her Praskeen," "Humors of Milltown (1)," "Silver Tip (The)." Irish, Double Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (O'Neill/1915): AABB (Cole, Joyce, Roche): AABB' (O'Neill/1850 & 1001). Bayard believes the first strain of this tune group was developed from "Bung Your Eye." "Trip it Along," "Humors of Ballinafauna," and "Humors of Castle Comer" are variants. Charlie Piggott, in the essay on Kilmaley, County Clare, fiddler, flute player and uilleann piper Peader O'Loughlin in his book Blooming Meadows (1998), remarks on tunes being disseminated into local, isolated traditions in Ireland by visiting musicians. It is remembered that "Blooming Meadows" was introduced into O'Loughlin's Kilmaley-Connolly, Clare, area by traveling piper Jerry O'Shea many generations ago.
