ROLL HER ON THE MOUNTAIN ("Umpuig air an sliab i" or "Corna an tSliabi"). AKA and see: "Galway Reel (5) (The), "Roll Her on the Mountain." Irish, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (O'Neill/1850 & 1001): AA'BB' (O'Neill/Krassen). James Kerr printed the reel twice in his c. 1880's Merry Melodies collections: first as "Galway Reel (5) (The)," and again as "Roll Her on the Hill." The latter is very close to O'Neill's version. However, the earliest appearance of the tune (as "Roll her on the Mountain") is in the large mid-19th century music manuscript collection of County Cork cleric and uilleann piper Canon biography:James Goodman. See also the related “Rolling on the Ryegrass.”
