about

Both myself and most others will associate this mighty tune with Liam O’Flynn’s haunting rendition of it on Planxty’s 1974 LP Cold Blow and the Rainy Night . As with Dark Loch na Gaor, this tune also dates back to the mid-1740s and the Jacobite era. Being both a song and military march, it has moved from Scotland to America to Ireland in various forms, reaching its identity as a six part hornpipe by the 1940s, when Padraig O’Keefe recorded it and appears on the RTE collection of his music entitled The Sliabh Luachra Fiddle Master. It’s also played as a two-part polka in that area, as the music of Kerry box players Denis Doody and Bryan and Johnny O’Leary will attest to.
