Might be worth pointing out that Paraic has very recently released a solo recording of his banjo playing, titled "Not Before Time... 39 Years In The Making" [ posted 13.10.2018 ]

[@christaylor2070]

I dont usually like saxes in Irish music but this is great

[@milesnagopaleen]

There aren't any saxes. That's a flute.

[@christaylor2070]

@@milesnagopaleen - Chris, yes i can see and hear that its a flute - I can only think I had been listening to another Irish band that DID have a sax ! Either that or I'm totally losing my marbles..................

[@milesnagopaleen]

@@christaylor2070 The sax was used in the 1920s by Irish dance bands such as the Flanagan Brothers. It hasn't been used much since then, except for bands like "At the Racket" who are attempting to recreate that 1920s sound.

[@christaylor2070]

@@milesnagopaleen YES! At the Racket was who i was listening to. Thanks for the reminder.
