Kesh Jig, which was learnt about 10 years ago from my first whistle book: "The Complete Irish Tinwhistle Tutor" by L E McCullough! It took a long time before I could play it convincingly.

What's funny about that is until the Bothy Band LP came out the year before, I'd never heard the Kesh Jig (or Kerrigan's, alternate title) played on record or in sessions... but after I learned it from the record, I realized how well suited it was to illustrate ornaments and variations. It was either that or Donnybrook Fair (Joy of My Life), and it ended up Kesh/Kerrigan's.
Best,
