The sleeve note on Do bhi bean uasal (There was a lady) also known as Carrickfergus on O Riada sa Gaiety reads as follows `Track 8 melody composed by Sean O`Riada ; inspiration taken from a traditional tune`. So, somebody has definitely decided that O`Riada composed the melody. Was the `traditional tune` mentioned in the blurb The Waters are Wide? This song does sound like a simpler version of the Carrickfergus air. Billy Finn
