Fantastic. As good as the old Noel Hill and Tony MacMahon duets. The last one is The Longford Tinker.

The tunes are:
For the Sake of Old Decency (in D)
Brendan McMahon’s
Martin Wynne’s No.2
The Longford Tinker
It seems the combination of the first two reels comes from the playing of the Tulla Ceili Band. A bit of research shows the second one is a version of the Steampacket and sometimes called the Mountain Lark.

I wonder if the last two they strung together they got from the Bothy Band...seems likely.
