What is this Tune?

It sounds somewhat familiar but I am not a great tune identifier and I couldn’t find the notes for it either.

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Swallow’s tail

Aha!! Thanks so much, I knew it sounded familiar. :slight_smile:

Swallow’s tail

And also the “Swallow’s Nest.” Take yer pick!

I would associate ‘The Swallow’s Nest’ with a reel composed by Paddy O Brien. the jig would be closer to a jig version of the Swallow’s Tail(reel) so it does make sense t ostick with that name :wink:

would be closer to a jig version of the Swallow’s nest (reel)

Did you mean swallow’s tail, or swallow’s nest there? Aw heck, let’s just call it the one that goes “dye-diddle dee-diddle…” :slight_smile:

That was a slip up :roll:

Considering it’s a short step from the Swallow’s Tail Reel:

eA ~A2 eA ~A2 Bdef gfge dG ~G2 dGBG BDEF G

to:

cAA eAA cBc edc BGG dGG gfg e ETC

Or it’s lower equivalent of

GEE BEE GEG BAG FDD ADD dcd B ETC


Swallow’s Tail would seem more appropriate.

There are many swallow’s tails out there.
2 that I know and play start as writ below:


eAA2 eAA2 Bdef g2ed G2BG dGBG Bdef g2fg


or:


e2dg eAA2 eAfA g2fg e2dB dGG2 BGBd g2fg


:boggle: :boggle: :boggle:
