The second hornpipe is melting my heart away. Wow! I love many accordion players but Tony and Steve together are something else.

[@TradTG4]

Alone they're brilliant. But these two together, there are no words...

Beautiful hornpipes and amazing playing by both.

Absolutely beautiful.

Great. The timing is wonderful.

Beautiful!

[@riverdonoghue9992]

So sad that Tony is longer with us. A giant of Irish music and culture.

[@padjo59]

Very true. But as Tony always emphasised that we were just 'looking after' the tune for the next generation, he does get a kind of immortality from it. He did his turn in the relay and we still have the great tunes that were passed on to him. Keep the session playing!

#2, The Plains of Boyle. A favorite of mine with the Wicklow.

[@riverdonoghue9992]

Ah plains of boyle. Great tune. Tony was king of the box.

[@HollisBerry]

Gorgeous playing. I know the second tune as The Faithful Friend.

[@paddyearly]

No wonder he/they got a lifetime achievement reward✅🇮🇪

[@TradTG4]

True masters at work . Hup !

[@eamonbreathnach4613]

The plains of Boyle and the second hornpipe must be Tonys own version of The Desmond hornpipe
