Tune of the Day: Carbray's Frolics
Traditional Irish jig
This jig first appeared in Francis O'Neill's collection The Dance Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1907. It was obtained from an Edison recording by fiddler James Carbray, from Québec, Canada, who later moved to Chicago, and since the tune was previously unnamed, O'Neill named it in honor of his source.
