“Father Kelly’s Reel” in G is yet another tune that is played in sessions around the globe. The stone attracts people from all over the world. The legend goes that kissing the stone endows the kisser with the gift of the gab, meaning giving the ability to speak freely and in a way people want to listen to you and believe you. The title of this jig is referring to The Blarney stone, a block of limestone built into the walls of Blarney Castle, located close to Cork, Ireland. It seems to be especially popular under fiddle players, but is equally nice to play on tin whistle or any other instrument. “The Blarney Pilgrim”:This jig is a popular tune at Irish sessions. One Jig and two reels: “The Blarney Pilgrim”, “Father Kelly” & “Pinch of Snuff”
