Back to Ambrose Moloney's

AMBROSE MOLONEY'S. AKA and see "McCabe's Reel (1)," "Tailor's Fancy (The)." Irish, Reel. The tune is named for Ballinakill, east County Galway, flute player Ambrose Moloney (whose brother Eddie, also a flutist and fiddler, played for a time with the band Shaskeen). Moloney's father, Stephen, was a member of the famous ceili band the Ballinakill Traditional Players in the 1930's. Editor Taylor thinks the tune "vaguely reminiscent" of "Ravelled Hank of Yarn (The)." "New Policeman (3) (The)" is a related reel in the first part.

Sources for notated versions: Tommy Hunt (b. 1908, Lissananny, Ballymote, Co. Sligo, Ireland) [Flaherty]; Jim McElhone (Co. Derry) [Mulvihill].
