Tune of the Day: Martin's Onehorned Cow

Traditional Irish jig

This jig first appeared in Francis O'Neill's celebrated collection The Dance Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1907.

The phrase “one-horned cow” is sometimes used as a metaphor for a still, an apparatus for distilling alcoholic drinks.
