NOW SHE'S PURRING. AKA and see "Callaghan's Reel (2)," "Concert Reel (4) (The)," "Denis Murphy's Reel (1)," "Doon Reel (4) (The)," "O'Callaghan's Reel." Irish, Reel. Dennis Murphy recorded this as "The Doon" (there are several "Doon" reels) on a 1940's 78 RPM, though later said the title was "Now She's Purring" (Treoir, 1975), a fact that Martin Mulvihill also noted in his collection. O'Keeffe may simply have been making a satisfied comment on the quality of the music when he "hit the groove", however.
