History
Melodeon player Peter J. Conlon and Sligo fiddler James Morrison made the first recording under this title in New York in 1929, pairing it with "Old Man Dillon," also known as "The Mug of Brown Ale." It is also called "The Corofin," after the Clare village.
The jig became a session standard in the 20th century. Kerry musicians Denis Murphy and Johnny O'Leary were recorded playing it in 1949, and Jerry O'Brien printed it in his Boston accordion tutor the same year.
