Back to Fond of the Ladies


FOND OF THE LADIES. Irish, Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The first part is the same as "Pat Beirne's Favourite," "Sweet Biddy Daly," "Irishman's Heart to the Ladies" family of tunes, though the second part is different (it is the first part of the "Kesh Jig (1)"). O'Neill (1922) remarks: "Following the example of Dr. Petrie and Dr. Joyce, whose collections abound in variants, some of which differ but slightly from others in their pages; the editor has continued the practice, rather than risk the loss of a worthy strain. Of that class is 'Fond of the Ladies', the opening bars of which remind us of 'Sweet Biddy Daly', or 'The Irishman's Heart to the Ladies' previously printed."
