Back to John Brennan from Sligo
JOHN BRENNAN FROM SLIGO (Seán o Braonáin as Sligeach). AKA - "John Brennan's Reel (3)." Irish, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. A similar tune is printed by Breathnach (CRÉ II, No. 173, pg. 90) as an untitled reel collected from the playing of Co. Galway musician Aggie White (Mrs. Sean Ryan). David Taylor (1992) notes that some musicians prefer to replace the last four bars of the second part of his version, second time round, with the last four bars of the first part. The tune is named for Sligo flute player John Brennan, a regular member of Dublin's Church Street Club, site of a famous long-lasting session that began in the late 1950's centered around County Clare fiddler John Kelly (father of fiddlers James and John Kelly, and a member of the famed Castle Ceili band).
Sources for notated versions: accordion player Sonny Brogan (County Sligo/Dublin, Ireland) [Breathnach]: The Bridge Ceili Band [Mulvihill].
