Richard Simm #788405. Published by Richard Simm (A0.1188789). This is the final song in Richard Simm's collection of "Five Irish Tunes" for two pianos. In 1724 some hot springs were discovered in the Irish town of Mallow, which soon became a famous health resort. The "Rakes" in the title of this well-known polka were a group of young lads who preferred drinking other things than the supposedly health-giving water there, and this catchy tune gives an inkling of the fun and games that seem to have been their main goal in life...
