Coleraine Regatta

[christianmayne]

I'm looking for an abc transcription of (the tune to) The Coleraine Regatta as recorded in 1968 by The Johnstons. Numerous net searches haven't bourne fruit. Anyone able to help? Perhaps the tune is known by another name, but it doesn't seem to be either the tune Coleraine or The Dingle Regatta.

Couldn't find abc either. I'm kind of new looking up tunes so this is good practice for me. I did find .mid files here:

And the words to one version here:

Hope they are the correct version. There are .mid to abc utilities, however I don't use them. (yet)

 

If the info I found is correct it was written by a blind fiddler named Jimmy McCurry who died in 1910:

Maybe too much information but it was good practice for me
