The Gaelic name is "Jer An Rigeara". A "rigger" is
one who attends to the rigging of a sailing ship or
one who specializes in moving large/heavy objects.
It has been recorded by Boys Of The Lough, Kevin Burke and others.
I play this in a medley with "Mairi's Wedding" in this section.
I learned this from Don Wisniewski's collection although
I had heard it a number of times before.
