Old enough to remember those glorious programmes presented by Ciarán in the early 60's. Tuesday evening & Sunday afternoon were the highlights of the week in our house, "Job of Journey Work" on Tuesday & Ceolta Tíra on Sunday afternoon. This is brilliant stuff & great great playing.
beautiful music and presentation. Thanks Larry for posting this. I had the fortune of meeting Andy McGann in 1981 but had only started to play fiddle in '76 the year after your grandfather had passed.
Absolutely wonderful clip, I LOVED every moment of it! Thanks so much for uploading your clips and transporting to us all in 2011 such incredible music and photos from the past . MANY THANKS! Shona ;-)
really fantastic stuff, thanks for sharing this. Before I moved to NYC from Virginia, I used to come up about every other weekend to hear Andy McGann at Kearny's.

Was Seamus Cooley in this group....who is playing the Piccolo?
I am pretty sure my dad said it was Jerry Wallace...
It was ...the first I heard playing it was Joe Bourke around 1960.
Tunes by set: 1) Buckley's Fancy / The Golden Keyboard; 2) McFadden's / Mama's Pet; 3) Street Player (Reavy)
@oldflute It was indeed!
Hmm. So Golden Keyboard was current in the early 60s...
