HARTIGAN'S FANCY (Roga Uí {h-}Artagain). AKA - "Hardigan's." AKA and see "Bliven's Favorite," "Butchers of Bristol (1) (The)," "By Your Leave Larry Grogan," "Coppers and Brass (2)," "County Limerick Buckhunt," "Finerty's Frolic," "Greensleeves (2)," "Groom," "Humors of Ennistymon (1) (The)," "Humours of Milltown (2) (The)," "Larry Grogan's (1)," "Lasses of Melrose (The)," "Lasses of Melross," "Little Fanny's Fancy," "Lynn's Favourite," "Lynny's Favourite," "Paddy's the Boy," "Pingneacha Rua agus Pras," "Queen of the Rushes," "Waves of Tramore (The)," "Willie Clancy's." Irish, Double Jig. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB (O'Neill): AA'BB'CC' [Taylor/Tweed]. Francis O'Neill says this jig was unpublished and "new to us," at least in the "Hartigan" form, prior to obtaining it from source Carey, and listed an alternate title as "Little Fanny's Fancy." Despite O'Neill's assertion that it was new, he printed in the same publication a variant called "By Your Leave Larry Grogan." Joyce's jig "Greensleeves (2)," printed in Old Irish Folk Music and Songs (1909), and Goodman's "Humours of Ennistymon" (volume III, 152) are two more of many variants of this large tune family. Breathnach remarks that a version was originally printed (by John Walsh before 1736 in Country Dances Book the Second) under the title "Larry Grogan," named for the County Wexford gentleman piper of the early-mid 1700's. See note for "Talk:Groom."

Source for notated version: John Carey, a native of Limerick [O'Neill].
