The Star Of Munster Trio

Julia Clifford - fiddle
John Clifford - piano-accordion
Billy Clifford - flute
Volume 2 in the "Topic" label's series "The Music Of Sliabh Luachra". This was apparently recorded around 1 solitary microphone in Lucy Farr's house, so it's a pretty "low-tech" recording. Only 1 set of polkas [ Track 4 ], and no slides, so presumably this is a recording of the reels, jigs, hornpipes and airs played in Sliabh Luachra .
Apologies to "ceolachan" for taking so long to post this after promising to do so. Thanks for reminding me - I'll post Vol.3 tomorrow.
