GLEN OF AHERLOW [2], THE. AKA and see "Canny's," "Crane's Leg (The)," "Lafferty's," "Rediggan's," "Woman I Ne'er Forgot (The)." The tune was composed by County Tipperary fiddler Seán Ryan (d. 1985) as "Lafferty's" (sometimes seen as "Lafferty's Reel" or "Laverty's Reel") and although it is sometimes called "The Glen of Aherlow" the latter is the title of another composition of his (see "Glen of Aherlow (1) (The)"). The alternate title "Canny's" come from association with County Clare fiddlers Paddy Canny and P.J. Hayes who were the first to record the melody in the 1960's.
