MICHAEL GORMAN'S. AKA and see "Tipperary Hills." Irish, Hop Jig. The tune is an idiosyncratic rendering of the slip jig "Tipperary Hills." Gorman plays it in 9/8 time, although with a similar rhythm to a single jig, the result giving the feeling of a 3/4 tune, like a mazurka.

Recorded sources: Green Linnett, SIF 3005, Bothy Band - "Old Hag You Have Killed Me" (Probably called Michael Gorman's after the 1956 recording of the tune by Gorman on Folkways FW 6819, "Irish Jigs, Reels & Hornpipes" {1956}).
