Fierce flute album from Belfast duo who some great takes on Donegal sets as well as tidy songs from Gerry.
Should be available from Belfast's Outlet Recordings-www.outlet-music.com.
Except for the tactless and uniformed remark by Sam Murray who wrote some of the sleevenotes and he states,in relation to Belfast:`There was no flute playing in the 1960`s with the exception of James McMahon from Fermanagh`He obviously never met, or heard of the great Tom Ginley who was there the whole time,Playing incredible music-one of the greatest Trad flute players ever to draw breath.
The Far Set
