I've been trying to find a name for this tune for awhile now. And, as these things often go, I stumbled onto it while I was looking for something else.

'The New Road' reminds me of a condensed version of 'Farewell to Erin.' Or maybe what someone might come up with if they were trying to play 'Farewell' but didn't remember the tune very well.

'The Green Fields of Glentown,' a big reel written by the late Tommy Peoples.

One of the hardest tunes I've ever learned. It took me forever to wrap my brain around all thecstuff that's going on in it.

Fergal Scagill's tune for today is a real banger! The last phrase of the B part sure didn't go where I expected it to go. I guess the ducks really did need to be fed.
