Tune of the Day: Jackson's Coge in the Morning
Traditional Irish jig
This traditional Irish tune bears the name of the 18th-century gentleman piper Walker ‛Piper’ Jackson, of the townland of Lisdaun, County Limerick. It appears in the first volume of O'Farrell's Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes, published c. 1805. Coggie is the name for a cup or small barrel.
