Music TOW#39: The Ash Plant
The Ash Plant

[Image: TOW39_AshPl.jpg]

I have had a request for this tune, so I thought it would be a good Tune of the Week. I notated it years ago from a Mick Moloney album, where it was called Reel on Mandolin. I have since found out that it goes under many names, including Jim Kelly's, Dickie Sherlock's and The Night In Ennis. Moloney is a fantastic mandolin player, tenor banjo player and singer; Irish, but has lived in the US for many years now. I recorded it using an older mandolin (a Kai Tonjes) which is suffering a little from neglect.

It's slightly different from the well known version I used to know and(I must say) a bit more interesting.
I must check out the Mick Moloney recording as I'm very sure I've got the album

It's on "We Have Met Together" (1973).
