The first reel is called “The Caucus at Secaucus,” composed by French-Canadian flute player Jean Duval for Mike Rafferty. The second reel is actually “The Boogie Reel,” composed by New York accordion player and All-Ireland champion John Nolan.
Wow fab reel playing. I hope this band stays together. Defintely an All-Ireland in them if they stick at it
