GEORGE REYNOLDS. Irish, Planxty (6/8 time). F Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Composed by blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738). George Reynolds was from Letterfian, near Lough Scur, County Leitrim, and was one of the first to encourage Carolan in composition, according to O'Sullivan, with the well-known "Sheebeg and Sheemore" the result.

Source for notated version: Samuel, Ann and Peter Thompson's The Hibernian Muse: a Collection of Irish Airs, including the Most Favourite Compositions of Carolan, the Celebrated Irish Bard (London, c. 1786) [O'Sullivan].

Printed sources: Complete Collection of Carolan's Irish Tunes, 1984; No. 157, p. 107. O'Sullivan (Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 157, p. 185.
