G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Breathnach, Cranitch): AA’B (Taylor): AABB (Mulvihill): AA’BB’ (Harker/Rafferty)1. Brendan Breathnach notes that he found an untitled version in P. W. Joyce's '''Ancient Irish Music''' (Dublin, 1912 {reprint}, 51). The variant in O’Neill, “Sweet Biddy of Ballyvourney,” has a different second part, which Breathnach says does not go with the tune. The song "Peigín Leitir Mór" is sung to this air in Conamara, as is the song “[[Goodbye Mursheen Durkin]].” The reel was first recorded by flute player Tom Morrison in 1925 under the title "[[Limerick Lasses (3)]]," followed by uilleann piper Edward Mullaney with fiddler Patrick Stack in 1926 (Victor 79012) as "[[Mullaney's Fancy]]", and eight years later by south County Sligo fiddler Paddy Killoran (1904–1965) in New York in 1934 (as "Pretty Girls of Mayo").
