I don't know what is up with the track listing on the back of this album. There is no indication as to what tunes they play and no sleeve notes to tell you what year the recordings were or who is performing. It's all good music but I would like a little bit more info. Maybe it's taken from various albums and performances but I'm only guessing. Anyone who has info on this please comment here.

Tune Details

I have the original cassette of this recording which gives full details - they mustn't have copied these over on to the CD. The recording was released in 1995 shortly after their first All-Ireland victory at Clonmel in August 1994 (The kilfenora subsequently went on to make it "three in a row" by winning again in 1995 and 1996).
