Are you sure about the title on that, Willie? If you go back to your video clip of the 2008 Ceili Band champions, the Inisfree, they play the “Peach Blossoms” barndance as well. The only problem is that it’s a different tune altogether! I learned both of these tunes by ear long before I had a title for either one; if anybody out there knows the proper titles for both these two tunes, please let us know!
