about

Even in 1724 nobody knew who wrote this one either. Playing it through on the guitar I wondered what would happen if I were to reimagine it, like so many Irish tunes, after the manner of the Appalachian travellers who took their tunes over the Atlantic and played them on whatever they had to hand. So this was an opportunity to polish up my clawhammer banjo and this is what happened.
