Afterhours was recorded live in Paris. At the beginning of the last track you can hear 'The Groves' being announced. I didn't realize that The First also started with The Kesh. All the best bt.
There's a really good LIVE version of the track - absolutely crackling - on Donal Lunny's "Best of..." album. Get it for 79p at http://www.tradtunes.com/
What about the BBC sessions, doesn't that start with the Kesh too? Perhaps not, I can't remember offhand but it's great stuff.
And Owell Mabee, I think that audiobook mught have been Frankie Gavin's biography.....
Bothy band recording help please.
Bothy band recording help please.
Hello,
One of my pals gave me a cassette of a Bothy Band record. The tape begins with a recording of "Kesh Jig"
I would like to know if anyone who also owns a copy of this recording can provide me with a list of the tune names therein.
There are several I have heard at sessions here and there but I don't know the names of the tunes.
can you help a fellow?
