Paddy Faheys Reel - Suitable For Violin And Mandolin

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                             Paddy Fahey's Reel (Fiddle tune transposed for Mandolin)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Phelim McGowan

I originally heard this tune as the opening track on Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill's 

'The Lonesome Touch' (1997) - played on the violin. I nutted it out note for note on the mandolin

 - the positions are the same for mandolin and violin if you are handy at reading tab.

If you listen to the track you will pick up the rhythm.


This acts as a good guide for me when playing along to this track. There may be a few slight

bells and whistles missing from the original arrangement hammer on's etc.(as is standard with any

 Martin Hayes treatment of traditional Irish music) but this 'bare bones' version should provide

a good foundation for those keen to learn it and you can add the fancy stuff in when

you familiarize yourself with the tune.


I hope this is useful for people out there.
