Tune of the Day: Walk Out of it Hogan

Traditional Irish jig

The earliest known appearance of this jig is in Francis O'Neill's collection Music of Ireland, published in Chicago in 1903. A nearly identical version, presented as an untitled jig collected from a “Mrs. Close”, can be found in George Petrie's The Complete Collection of Irish Music (London, 1905).

The tune is related to “Helvic Head” from O'Farrell's Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes, 1806.
