The tune at 5:02 is called Sporting Belles in case anyone ants to know! fun fact, Altan plays that in the Emyvale set in Red Crow! :) but the album calls it "ril gan anim"
@dazpatreg You Sligo folk sure are proud of your styles and musicians! Fair enough too I reckon. I'm Australian, but having driven from Glencolumcille to Sligo Town I'm amazed by the difference in playing style - particularly fiddle. How did that happen? All the best to you.
Haha I went to school with Doherty’s here in the Appalachians I also being what we call scotch Irish by the last name of Patrick would John Doherty be related to the traveling fighter paddy Doherty ? I would suspect so.
@martinmcmutrie Haha yeah I wish I was as good as mairead ni mhaonaigh or any of the sligo or donegal players. If you go further south to east galway and then on to tulla in co clare it changes even more! It's crazy how much variance there is in a tiny strip on the west coast. That's something to be proud of anyway!
dazpatreg your cousins across the pond in the Appalachians in America here we are the same way the fiddle music changes by just going over the mountain hahahaha

The playing is class but I'm being struck by the way that these old fellas have of telling a story. Beautiful sentence structure!
