They vertainly aren't the Boys of the Low. Every time I've heard it, it's been Tur-lokh as in Khassid.

"Turlough is pronounced "Ter-luk"
Never heard it pronounced that way around here (W of Ireland) but I'm sure Martin Ryan can put us right when he goes home from the Willie Clancy School.
It's always fascinated me that a turlough is a lake that dries up in summertime.

There is a slight controversy over whether there is a repeated flattened accidental in the B part. Some play it with and some without. I like it with.

............so following that logic, 'The Boys of the Lough' are really 'The Boys of the Luck' ??

I beg to differ,as one of the Irish-speaking (mustn't say Erse !) contributors to this discussion has already stated that Turlough is pronounced "Ter-luk",not "Ter -low"-----Cue "Dam Busters" music and da-da-da-da-da noises !!

I appreciate the existence of earlier discussions on the controversy of how Carolan's name be pronounced.

Seems to me, the name is Carolan, but since his first name was Turlough - pronounced 'Turlow' - both run together could produce the confusion of 'Turlow [O'] Carolan'. IMO

Aha !! If you read the other " Carolan" thread above,you will see that it can be "Turlough O'Carolan's Draught", or " Carolan's Draught",as,without his first name,you drop the "O' ". Well, according to various learned Mudcatters,you do !! Tricky,but rather interesting !!

Thanks Bill for going to all the trouble...

I found the tune following the link Sorcha gave.
And Mandolin tabs are no use to me, I only torture my neighbours by playing the tin whistle...

But maybe some mandolin player can use it...

Mudguard, try the old Irish spelling, Toirdhealbhach O'Cearbhallain !! That's right, 'turlow o caroline'!!

Here is the mandolin tab which you can use for fiddle, etc., from this web site, in case it doesn't copy correctly

'Turlough O'Carolan's Draught', better known as 'O'Carolan's Draught', should be easy to find, I'm sure it;s on the web somewhere in a midi file, or soemthing you can listen to

Today I heard a tune which was announced as something like
"Turlow Carolan's Drawed"
The PA system was not too good and it might be something spelled quite differently
- not being a native English speaker didn't help at all ;-)

I liked the tune very much.
Does anyone know it - or even better have it as ABC?

TIA
