Anyone know where/whether this CD is available. I've trawled the net to no avail.

I bought it some months ago and I think I got it in Custys in Co.Clare , its just great ! Mairtin Byrnes is also featured in a few tracks on "Paddy in the Smoke" which is also a fantastic recording, well worth getting

Part of a series from the Outlet label - 1st LP was Seamus Ennis, the other day my copy of #3 arrived, Seamus Tansey With Eddie Corcoran. Most highly excellent puffing, dude!

Buy 'em collect 'em trade 'em

Here's the Ennis, used LP in the UK: https://www.vinyltap.co.uk/shop/title/Masters+Of+Irish+Music.aspx Also here you can read liner notes, from the pen of Seamus's Ma: http://www.uilleannobsession.com/diary_2003.html

No, Kevin,

The Martin Byrnes, Séamus Ennis and Tansey/Corcoran albums were issued on the Leader label, not Outlet. All of the recordings on said label, founded by Bill Leader (who did such great work for Topic too) are now owned by the iniquitous Dave Bulmer of Celtic Music renown. There are numerous threads about Mr. Bulmer on The Mudcat Café site.

One great album from the label which has never reappeared in CD format was 'Irish Music from The Favourite'.
