Back to Old Favourite (The)
OLD FAVOURITE, THE. AKA and see "Kilfenora Jig (2)," "Micko Doyle's Jig." Irish, Jig (6/8 time) or Slide (12/8 time). Ireland, County Clare. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB (Silberberg): AABB' (Boys of the Lough, Miller & Perron, Songer, Sullivan): AA'BB' (Mallinson). It has been suggested that the title derives from the name a pub, "The Favourite," in Holloway, North London, a rendezvous for Irish musicians and the location of the live Topic recording "Paddy in the Smoke." Source Mac Gabhann/Smith, however, says it is a jig from County Clare, where he learned it (Miller & Perron).
Sources for notated versions: A (Co.) Clare jig learned from fiddler Antóin Mac Gabhann/Tony Smith (County Cavan, lately removed to County Meath, Ireland) [Boys of the Lough, Miller & Perron]; John Keenan [Sullivan]; Laurie Andres [Silberberg].
