LETTERKENNY FROLIC, THE. Irish, Reel. Ireland, County Donegal. Collected in 1904 by Padraig Mac Aodh O'Neill from the playing of Andrew MacIntyre (1877-1959) of Ballymore, Donegal, and published in the Journal of the Irish Folk Song Society for that year. O'Neill noted the tune was well-known throughout the county at the time, however, Caoimhin Mac Aoidh (1994) remarks that it is hardly played today.
