    Default What is this hornpipe?

    I used to play it on the fiddle in Gm. Now it’s back in my head and I can’t remember the rest. Similar to Bobby Casey’s but I believe it’s a different tune. I may have learned it from an old LP “fiddle music of Clare” but I’m not sure.

    This is all I’ve got...

    I believe that's "The Drunken Sailor," isn't it?

    You will find this tune as either the Tipsy or Drunken Sailor's hornpipe, available on www.thesession.org as the Drunken Sailor's. A great tune.

    Thanks so much! Got it in my fingers again and now I can obsess about something else!
