Priceless footage of Rochford 👌🎶👏💯 Thanks for capturing and sharing this Matt

Great upload! And great to see Martin Rochford. My nan's first cousin. I never met him, but my dad remembers him fondly.

Powerful stuff Matt.. Lovey piping also.

I'm lucky to have met him. There was magic in his playing, especially on the fiddle - the real draíocht of east Clare.

Thanks for sharing Matt! I would have loved to have met Rochford. He was magic on the fiddle. Lovely piper too. Will have to watch this again! Lovely to hear him talking. So important for those of us that never met him but always heard wonderful stories of him. Claire was lucky to meet him!

Go bhfaga Dia do shláinte agat Matt - mighty to have his company briefly once again. Laoch. Go raibh maith agaibh.

This is brilliant, thanks for that Matt

Wonderful man!

Mighty stuff Matt, thanks. Never though I’d see Rochford again! Any bits of him on the fiddle...?

Thanks Matt. Great memories there. Wonderful man, sadly missed.

Beautiful!

Thanks ever so much Matt. That's lovely. We used to go up to Martin and Kathleen for tunes (and rivers of tea and mountains of sandwiches) Great memories of the Rochfords and the music at Ballinahynch. . One time we arrived and ended up staying for three days, camping beside the house, driving Martin here and there, tuning up his pipes, playing tunes and Martin playing tunes for us. We went with tapes full of fiddle tunes from him. I always feel a bit lonesome driving up that way and sometimes stop at the house to have a look, the roof has fallen in by now. I stopped there only a few weeks ago, on my way to Scarriff.

Beautiful -thanks Matt!
