I must be annoying the Comhaltas authorities at this stage but Planxty Joe Burke is actually a composition of Charlie Lennon.

No annoyance whatsoever, Paddy - glad we’ve got you out there! Look forward to seeing you next time I’m in Dublin. Cheers,—Breandán

The two reels at the end are Lucy Campbell and The Cape Breton Fiddler’s Welcome to Shetland (the latter composed by Willie Hunter).

The jig following the planxty is Rolling Wave aka Humours of Trim.
Unless a time machine was involved, I do believe Planxty Joe Burke was composed by Charlie Lennon! Hehe
Cheers,
Armand
