JOHN MOORE. AKA - "Eoin O Moradh." Irish, Planxty ('A' and 'B' parts in cut time, 'C' part in jig time). C Mixolydian. Standard tuning (fiddle). ABC. Composed by Turlough O'Carolan [] (). Hardiman states that John Moore was 'of Bryes', County Mayo, probably the Captain John Moore of Brize Castle, near Claremorris, who married Mary, daughter of Denis Daly of Carrownakelly in 1698. He died in 1706 [O'Sullivan]. The air printed by John Mulholland (Ancient Irish Airs) in Belfast in 1810, is identical to that printed by John Lee (1780), save that the attached jig is missing.

Source for notated version: John Lee's A Favourite Collection of the so much admired old Irish Tunes, the original and genuine compositions of Carolan, the celebrated Irish Bard (Dublin, 1780) [O'Sullivan].

Printed sources: Complete Collection of Carolan's Irish Tunes, 1984; No. 103, p. 78. Mulholland (Ancient Irish Airs), 1810; p. 22. O'Sullivan (Carolan: The Life, Times and Music of an Irish Harper), 1958; No. 103, p. 156.
