This is indeed the tune that Andy Irvine set Willie o' Winsbury to. Sweeney's Men - Andy Irvine, Johnny Moynihan and Terry Woods - recorded Willie o' Winsbury in 1968 for their first LP, Sweeney's Men. Johnny Moynihan's then girlfriend Anne Briggs recorded this ballad too in 1971 for her first solo album, Anne Briggs. The question is; Where did Andy Irvine find the tune?
