Tune properties and standard notation
DANIEL O'CONNELL. AKA and see "Bundle and Go [2]," "Larry O'Gaff [1], "Making Babies by Steam." Irish, Double Jig. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB'. David Taylor (1992) notes that this tune is often confused with the similar, though different, and better-known "Larry O'Gaff" (usually played in G Major). To add to the confusion, the tune in the volume he edits from the playing of the band Shaskeen sounds more like "Larry O'Gaff" (especially in the first part, which is nearly identical) transposed to the key of D.
