Lovely playing Mam and Dad. How lucky we were growing up listening to music like that. I have to learn Besom in Bloom.
Homesick now! Nice work Willie on collecting music from master musicians in this invaluable archive.

It’s great to hear John Joe & Kathleen playing again. The last time I saw you two was in about 1981, with Granny playing Harvest Home on the fiddle :)
Good luck to you!

Thank you Kathleen and John Joe for this great piece, and for so generously passing along your vast knowledge and love of traditional Irish music to new generations
of musicians. Thank you also CCÉ.
