Ok, this is another of the new-to-me tunes that my hammered dulcimer friend has me learning. I can see why she knows it because the Fiddler's Companion says that it was popularized in the US by Grey Larsen & Malcolm Dalglish. (come to think of it, I must have heard it there too. It was on Banish Misfortune and I had that LP) That site further states:

Lisdoonvarna, County Clare, was formerly a spa town where Victorian society partook of the mineral waters that were thought to have healing properties.

Medley of Rock the Cradle Joe, West Fork Girls, something that I learned from a contra dance record but can't remember the name, and my version of Ragtime Annie. I can still picture in my mind the first time I heard and saw West Fork Girls being played. It was at a party in Seattle in 1977, and there were three banjo players besides me. I had no idea of the tune, but just watched their left hands all going dum-dum-dum, dum-dum-dum down the neck in the B part....Read more »
