NOTE:
"Coda" is my suggested way of bringing to a conclusion a tune that (1) is circular in construction (2) doesn't end on the tonic note. It's not part of the tune and its use is optional.

This tune was named by piper Jerry O'Sullivan for his grandfather, 
a native of Killasser near Swinford (Co. Mayo) who passed away in 1981. 
As far as I know, this is Jerry's initial attempt at tune composing!

I first heard this tune on the "Live in Palma" CD (Dervish 1997, 
tune 3 in Killavil Set). Following in the honored tradition of folks 
like Francis O'Neill and Breandan Breathnach, I christened what I thought
was an otherwise nameless jig after a pub in the James' Gate area of Dublin 
where I played some tunes many years ago. I understand the poor old Barn 
Owl has since disappeared, a victim of "urban renewal". Other folks (not
the composer, alas) have put names to this tune but I still like mine the 
best!

The first person I ever heard play this tune - in the Eagle Tavern, 
I believe - was New York fiddler Dan Collins. De Danann got the tune 
from Dan. I have seen it in other collections since MVBT-1 was published 
in 1995, occasionally with different names. Dan himself was the one who 
called it "Dan Collins' Father's Jig", which is the name I used in MVBT-1, 
but "Bill Collins'" is a lot easier. Regardless of the name, it remains 
one of my favorite jigs.

After laboriously transcribing this from "Molly" - where it appears
as "Conlon's" - I included this in MVBT-1. Only later did I find out 
that I had re-invented the wheel: "Conlon's" was a version of "Happy 
to Meet, Sorry to Part", a tune included in both CRE-2 and O'Neill's 
1850. The "Conlon" of De Danann's title is presumably 1920's melodeon 
player Peter Conlon. Since it's a neat tune that you don't hear much 
these days, I've decided to keep it under both titles!

De Danann - a great group but never the best at tune names - recorded 
this as "Joe Derrane's". Somewhere or another - maybe from Joe - I got
the correct name. I was sure the tune was in one of the O'Neill's volumes 
since Hardiman was one of the Chief's Chicago acquaintances (and evidently 
the fiddling source of the slip jig that has his name on it), but I was 
surprised not to find it, at least not under his name.

The late Boston fiddler Larry Reynolds played this catchy "gan
ainm" jig for us at a festival here on Cape Cod in the early 1990's. 
Later he was telling us about an East Galway IRA man named Malachy 
Brennan, who when ambushed by the Black and Tans miraculously escaped 
injury to himself but took a number of shots to his good overcoat. 
Suddenly the jig "gan ainm" had a name!

I took this from the Kathleen Collins 1976 LP (where Jackie's 
last name is misspelled "Roach", an error I repeated in MVBT-1). 
Dan Collins says this was composed not by Roche but by James Morrison, 
who called it "The Pilgrim". Jackie Roche was a fiddler, a student of 
John McGrath's, who went on to lead a dance band. (A sample of their 
music is on YouTube.) He lived on Staten Island and died sometime in 
the 1980s.

This tune and "The Woodcock" (#41355) are compositions of Belfast 
flute player and builder Hammy Hamilton, now residing near 
Ballyvourney in West Cork. I first heard them played by a band 
from Northern Ireland named "Déanta", whose flute player Deirdre 
Havlin got them "gan ainm" from Hammy. I eventually got the actual 
names from him via the IRTRAD mailing list of happy memory. 
(Kerfunten is a town in Brittany that hosted a music festival in 
years past.) Some people play these two tunes in D; Hammy said he
didn't remember whether D or G were the original keys!

This tune was transcribed from the playing of Chicago box player 
Jimmy Keane. Larry Redican, a member of the legendary New York Ceili 
Band of the 1960's, composed many first-rate tunes, but he didn't  
seem to name any of them. In any event this tune is a great addition 
to the slip jig repertoire.

Boston box player Mike Reynolds is the first person I ever heard play

a traditional Scots tune. Either way it's become a favorite session tune

Since Mike got it from Joe Burke, I cleverly christened it "Joe Burke's

The first composing effort of box player Colm Gannon and named 
for his late older brother (and fine box player in his own right, 
as is father Seán Sr.).
=
In April of 2017 a Yarmouth K-9 police officer named Seán Gannon (RIP)
gave his life in the line of duty. We use to play this tune - renamed 
"Sergeant Seán Gannon's" in his memory - at our local sessions. Time
to revive it, I think.

This is a version of 'Monk's Jig' / 'Port an Bhrathair' transcribed 
in the mid-90's from a tape of a UK group called "Floating Crowbar",
about whom I know nothing. Patrick "Sonny" Brogan, from Dublin, was 
a well-respected 1960's box player whose name appears on several tunes. 
He died in 1965.
