X:1 T:The Barony Jig [1] M:9/8 L:1/8 %Q:120 S:learned from David Kidd D:Cherish the Ladies's CD "The Back Door" D:Jack and Charlie Coen's LP "The Branch Line" D:Matt Molloy's "Heathery Breeze" album R:Slip Jig Z:Lorna LaVerne N:Lorna writes: N:"The title "Redican's Mother" comes from Jack and Charlie Coen's LP "The N:Branch Line." The notes state: "Jack got [the tune] from Larry Redican who N:had originally learned it from his mother. Jack met Larry's mother once in N:Dublin in 1960. She was 104 years old at the time and played the tin whistle N:up to the day she died." You see why Jack might have wanted to call the tune N:after her. It wasn't composed by Larry Redican though. The tune is called N:"Trealock Lauder" in O'Farrell's Pocket Companion (c.1800) and "The Barony N:Jig" in the Roche Collection".
