SLAUDEEN’S DELIGHT. Irish, Jig (6/8 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. The tune is a variant of “Sweet Biddy Daly,” played as part of the Dingle Wren tradition by fife and drum band. The tune was transcribed by Steve MacDonogh in his book Green and Gold, that used the 1982 Wren event as an opportunity to explore historic and folklore background of the tradition.
