    Default Need help identifying tune

    Hi There! On a recent trip to Ireland I was able to record some excellent sessions and there is one tune in particular that I would love to identify by name. Below is a link to a dropbox file which contains the recording [You don't have to sign up to listen to the file, just click no thanks on the bottom of the popup if one appears.] The tune in question is the first tune. Thanks!

    It's a fairly common Irish jig called "Biddy the Bowl Wife" or "Bangor Regatta".

    Greg,
    Did you record that at Taaffes? I was in Galway in May. Couldn't squeeze in at Taaffes but listened to a great session across the street at Tig Coili and later at the Crane. Great fun.

    I believe the set of tunes are Biddy the Bowl Wife/The Humours of Ennistymon/Gallagher's Frolics/The Rose in the Heather
