On Clo Iar-Chonachta Records (CICD 157). Gorgeous, moderately paced melodeon playing from Connolly with Charlie Lennon doing his stuff -as Charlie does so well - on the piano. http://www.cic.ie
Having heard some tracks of this recording on the latest show of "Culan," I instantly added it to my wish list. Quite a good number of old, familiar tunes magically turn into gorgeous masterpieces. You should check the radio programme untill next Sunday.
Tracks 3, 13 and 15 are on a C Hohner according to the liner notes, although there may be other tracks on a C as well. The other tracks are on a D melodeon by a maker called Martyn, whom I haven't been able to find in a few quick searches.
