I heard this tune a few weeks ago and had to learn it. Took me a bit to get it down.

So did I do this tune justice or injustice?  It was quite a hard tune to figure out and I don't and can't really play Irish tunes, that's a whole 'nother beast in itself.  I just tried to old time it and keep the same Irish feel at the same time.
