Back to Crooked Road to Dublin (The)
CROOKED ROAD TO DUBLIN, THE. AKA and see "Duke of Leinster's Wife (The)," "Ladies' Pantalettes (1) (The)," "Lady's Panteletts," "Smiles and Tears of Erin (The)." Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Mitchell, Mulvihill): AAB (Harker/Rafferty): AABB (Phillips). Daniel Michael Collins, in liner notes to Shanachie 29009, says this is a fairly common session tune which stresses triplets in the 'A' part and rolls in the 'B' part. It is not either of the "Crooked Way to Dublin" versions in Roche. Breathnach prints the melody as "Smiles and Tears of Erin (The)" (CRÉ I, no. 101). Alan Ng finds the "Crooked Road" as the first tune in the "Ladies Pantalettes" set on a few recordings, leading some to refer to the tune by the name "Lady's Pantelette's/Duke of Leinster's Wife," which really refers to another, unrelated tune.
