Notes

Paul writes: Maurice came to our session last night and I asked him where he got the tune from (from where he got the tune, if you insist). He said he got it from his"master" (first music teacher) Johnny Linehan, and that Linehan called it "The Drunken Peeler". Maurice regards it as a very old tune.
