MOURNE MOUNTAINS [1] (Sliebte Mugdorna). AKA and see "Bascadh Thomáis Mhic a' Bháird," "Long Hills of Mourne (2) (The)," "Peggy is your head sick?" "Purty Girl (The)," "Tom Ward's Downfall." Irish, Reel. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (O'Neill/1850 & 1001): AA'BB' (O'Neill/1915). The Mourne Mountains [1] are the highest range in Ulster, located in County Down. The tune has currency among Cape Breton fiddlers, stemming from Winston Fitzgerald's and Johnny Wilmot's recordings of it on 78 RPM discs, and it has been frequently recorded. Cape Breton fiddler Lee Cremo recorded it as "O'Leary's Reel." See note for "Annotation:Tom Ward's Downfall."

The reel was recorded in 1929 by accordion player Peter "P.J." Conlon, the 2nd tune in a medley named "The Fiddler's Delight."
