The jig is one of the most enduring and popular pieces in the Irish repertoire, and has even spread to other genres. It is, for example, one of the commonly played jigs for English rapper sword dancing (along with "Blackthorn Stick (The)" and "Ten-Penny Bit (The)"), and is a staple for contra dancing. Connaught was one of the five old provinces of Ireland (along with Ulster, Leinster, Meath, and Munster), named for the ancient tribe who lived there, the Connachta. The title appears in a list of tunes in his repertoire brought by Philip Goodman, the last professional and traditional piper in Farney, Louth, to the Feis Ceoil in Belfast in 1898 (Breathnach, 1997). County Leitrim piper and fiddler [[biography:Stephen Grier]] entered the jig as "Connaught Man's Rambles" in Book 3 of his large c. 1883 music manuscript collection.

Breathnach remarks that the tune was originally printed under the title Larry Grogan. In the liner notes for the album "Clare Concertinas: Bernard O'Sullivan and Tommy McMahon," Muiris Ó Rochain writes that County Sligo/New York fiddler Michael Coleman adapted the tune Coppers and Brass by adding a third part, the whole of which he renamed "The Humours of Ennistymon." Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin (1999) believes that travelling piper Johnny Doran popularized the tune in Clare in the 1930's and 1940's, playing it as Coppers and Brass.

The melody is known by most traditional musicians now-a-days by the title "Humours of Ennistymon," however, pipers seem to know it better as "Coppers and Brass."

Breathnach remarks that the tune was originally printed (by John Walsh before 1736 in Country Dances Book the Second) under the title "Larry Grogan," named for the County Wexford gentleman piper of the early-mid 1700's.

Aird's (Selections, vol. II, c. 1790) "The Lasses of Melross" has the same first part.

O'Neill prints versions of the tune as "Hartigan's Fancy" (a poor version, states Breathnach), "By your leave, Larry Grogan," "Little Fanny's Fancy," and "The County Limerick Buckhunt." In a later O'Neill publication (Waifs and Strays) it appears as "The Limerick Buckhunt" and "The Waves of Tramore." Joyce (1909) gives it as "Green Sleeves." See also note for "Groom."
