LARRY REDICAN'S SLIP JIG. Irish, Slip Jig (9/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. A composition of Irish-American fiddler and banjo player, Larry Redican [1] (1908-1975), who originally called it "Lough Key" in honor of Paddy O'Brien on the occasion of the famous accordion player's trip to America. Although he was born in Dublin, Redican's parents hailed from Boyle, Co. Sligo, and were both flute players.

He worked for much of his life for the cosmetics company Estee Lauder in New York. Redican was a member of the New York Céili Band.
