about

This is another tune in the “Gravel Walk”/ “Highland Man” family. The Irish settings (like this one, though it was collected in America by O’Neill) predictably tend to get further afield in terms of changes to the melody and title, so it is more challenging to recognize them. This setting is one of my absolute favorites in this extensive family of related tunes.
