T:JOHNSON'S REEL
T:Jackson's, R\'edl Mhic Eoin
C:ABC/arr. BB
S:Sonny Brogan
N:This tune appears in other sources, but CRE is the only one
that refers to this tune as anything other than "Jackson's"
(of which there are many, so "Johnson's" actually works better
from an archiving standpoint!) The Gaelic actually means "The
Reel of John's Son" but (as with many of Breathnach's titles)
one can never be sure if this isn't a "back translation from
the English.
