Erratum

I don't have this recording at hand now, but I remember the first tune on track 4 is actually "Larry Bedican's": http://thesession.org/tunes/display.php/613 I guess it comes from Chiefrtains' album.

Some of the best chunes on this album are not on the site.

Suggestion

Certainly some unknown titles there. Maybe you could post them ??

I haven't heard the album but could "The Bucks of Arranmore" be something that we are more familiar with, Zina? :-)

I used to own this recording, and it wasn't too bad in spite of the silly title. The very first tune is, of course, Michael G's favourite.
