Kerry Polka

Post Sat Mar 01, 2014 4:39 pm

Hello,

I got a question to the tune "Kerry Polka" which is on the Just look them straigt in the eye collection (and at the end of South Australia). In my Tenor Banjo book I found a tune with the title "Kerry Polka" but it sounds totally different to the version the Pogues play. I looked it up at Youtube and only found versions, which are like the one in my book. E.g. this one:

So I was wondering, if the title of the Pogues tune is wrong?
Can someone tell me the actual name of the tune?
