OLD LANGOLEE/LANGALEE, THE (An Sean Langoli). AKA and see "Humors of Ballamaguiry (The)," "Smile on for Thy Young Days." Irish, Air (6/8 time, "playful" “Slow”) or Jig. D Major/Mixolydian (Clinton): G Major/Mixolydian (Kerr/vol. 2, O'Farrell, O'Neill): A Major/Mixolydian (Kerr vol. 3). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (O'Neill): AABB (Kerr). 'Lango Lee' supposedly derives from an Irish phrase for an engorged penis. O'Farrell indicates 'f' natural notes in the first and third measures of the 'B' part.
