GIRLS OF FARRANFORE, THE. AKA and see "Aberdeen Lasses," "Game of Love (The), "Lass of Farranfore (The)," "New Custom House (The)," "Paddy the Piper (1)." Irish, Reel. E Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). A version of "Game of Love (The)." See note for "Annotation:Gneevguilla Reel (The)"/"Pride of Rathmore (The)" with which this reel was paired on Paddy Cronin's 1950's Copely LP, a set widely imitated. "<incipit title="load:custom" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/New Custom House (The)">New Custom House (The)</incipit>" is a related tune. The third part of "Gneevguilla Reel (The)" AKA "Considine's Grove" is the first strain of the present "Farranfore" tune, attached to a variation of the "Pride of Rathmore (The)" in a kind of condensation of Cronin's medley. The first appearance of the tune in print, however, was under the title "<incipit title="load:piper" width=850 link="https://tunearch.org/wiki/Paddy the Piper (1)">Paddy the Piper (1)</incipit>" in Ryan's Mammoth Collection (Boston, 1883).
