Laccaroe (The)

“The Laccaroe” is a tune I learned from my friend JB Samzun, who plays fiddle. He got this lovely reel from the playing of Pat O’Connor and it is also know as “The Old Ashplant” or “Eonach Mhic Coilín”.

It is usually followed by an other barndance from Vincent Broderick called “The New Broom”, which I also learned at that session.
