"Allie Croaker's Favorite" appears in Ryan's Mammoth Collection (1883) and Cole's 1000 Fiddle<br> Tunes (1940) as a reel in A dorian. Online searches will find results for "Allie Croker",<br> "Ally Croker" and "Ally Crocker" but they are different tunes in G or D. There is also a song<br> attributed to Lawrence (Larry) Grogan of Johnstown Castle, County Wexford, who was the first<br> performer on the improved version of the Irish pipes called the uilleann or (archaically)<br> Union pipes.<br> I did find this version in a collection of .abc files but there was no background information<br> available.<br>
