Ever since hearing Dave Hum play this tune I've wanted to learn it. I happened upon it in a Ken Perlman clawhammer book and found I could play it.

One of the great pleasures of banjo playing for me is just as you said. Happening upon a tune and "found that I could play it." Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for listening, Mike and Tom. It's a great Irish reel with an unmistakable and unique melody.
