GRÁINNE'S JIG. AKA and see "Felix Kearney's," "Redican's Jig (1)," "Tommy Peoples' Jig." Irish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'CC'. The tune is claimed as a composition by Donegal fiddler Tommy Peoples, who named it in honor of his youngest daughter. Boston button accordionist Joe Derrane, however, recorded a jig extremely similar to first two parts of Peoples' setting, which he called "Papa's Joy" and claimd to have composed in the 1960's. On his CD Outside the Box, Brooklyn-born button accordionist Billy McComiskey recorded a related two-part jig he called "Maura McGlynn" after the wife of his source, east Galway button accordionist Sean McGlynn. The McGlynn tune as played by McComiskey combines the first part of the Peoples/Derrane setting with Peoples' third part.
