*Notes: Susan Reid writes: “I learned this a long time ago as Paddy Fahey’s. But since I have only heard minor versions of the jig by that name, I wonder whether we learned a rogue version. Finally, while playing this on Linda Young’s porch, we decided to just rename it Paddy’s Porch.  I guess I would still attribute it to Paddy Fahey though. What are a few accidentals among friends?”
