The tune is named for Ballinakill, County Galway, flute player Ambrose Moloney (whose brother Eddie, also a flutist and fiddler, played for a time with the band Shaskeen). Editor Taylor thinks the tune "vaguely reminiscent" of "The Ravelled Hank of Yarn." "The New Policeman [3]" is a related reel in the first part.
