I was perusing the internet looking for information on some Irish tunes — and say howdy! I sure found it.
This website, irishtune.info, lists albums and songs, so when you hear a familiar tune, but can’t quite place it (and let’s face it, that kind of thing can lead to insanity!) you can look it up.
It also has links to similar websites.
Check it out! It’s hours of fun.
