Back to Prohibition (The)
PROHIBITION, THE. AKA and see “Ladies of Leinster (The)," "Ladus (The).” Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Mulvihill credits the composition to fiddler Lad O’Beirne (New York), although Paul de Grae points out the tune is nearly note-for-note the same as “Ladies of Leinster (The)” as printed by O’Neill (DMI 691, MOI 1461), and by Mulvihill later in his own volume (No. 59). It is called "The Ladus" in Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883), a title that New York researcher, writer and musician Don Meade believes derives from "Ladies of Leinster."
The tune was recorded as "The Prohibition" in the key of 'A' by County Sligo fiddler Michael Coleman and Tom Gannon (also from County Sligo) in 1922. It is paired with "Contradiction Reel (The)" on the recording.
