At least, I think that’s what it’s called. I’ve got a recording of it on tape and I need to learn it on the whistle. I’d like to track down the sheet music to help me with those bits where I can’t quite make head nor tail of the performance aurally.
Got any pointers? I’ve tried putting “An Rince Mor” into the Session but no joy. It’s quite fast - either a reel or a polka - and I’ve played along on the guitar using just the chords of G and D up until now.
I found the name of a reel “An Rince Mor” in a few places, but they were all foreign language sites. I can’t help but think this is not a correct/valid name for this tune. Perhaps you could run it by someone, or tell us here where you got the tune from.

Thanks, djm. I think my best bet is to try and fudge a mp3 recording off the tape and post that up, which is no mean feat. For the record, the tune is one I play with the ITM/general folk band I’m in, sandwiched between the Dorset 4-hand reel and Wi’ a Hundred Pipers, in case that helps. Which I doubt. 
Asking the fellas what the tune’s name is is not an option either, because it seems to be lost to the mists of time.
Anyhoo, I’ll get to work on that tape ==> mp3 transposition.
Actually, screw that. I got it semi-learned on the whistle. Here’s me playing it for one of the first few times this evening.

Please bear in mind that I know this is possibly the worst rendition ever heard by mankind (okay, fifth worst - this is the last of five takes!) All I’m after is an ID, not hints on techniques etc.
So yeah, known by anyone here?
Thanks,

It’s The Rakes of Mallow:
Yup, Jumper nailed it - The Rakes of Mallow; to be played over an open campfire on a warm summer’s night.
