Nice job, Tony. I might be wrong, but I think this tune is Irish. It's also called Little Beggarman.

Yep ... and Little Beggerman has older roots in a tune called Gilderroy I believe.

"Gilderoy" is Gaelic for "Red Haired Boy" as I recall and is the original Irish reel that the modern fiddle tune is descended from.
