This is a DVD video of the Shaskeen Band playing a session in Fox's Pub before an audience. There are no "tracks" as such on the DVD but the various sets can be accessed on a dvd player by going to the "chapters". The DVD serial number is DVD615 and it may be purchased online at http://www.irishmusicshop.ie. Usefully, the DVD is PAL format on one side and NTSC on the other.
The band line-up is:
Tom Cussen - banjo, who introduces each set with a few words
Pat Costello - vocal, guitar, mandolin
Eamon Costello - flute
Conor Keane - accordion
Benny O'Conner - drums, bodhran
Unlike CDs, one may play along with this DVD and see the musicians as they play.
trevor if you take away the types of tunes in brackets e.g. (reels)
then more of the links will show up cause i know for sure that the foxhunters is in this site.
Since the tune types are now no longer listed in the Details it's convenient to marry them up with the tune names as follows (in the order of playing):
Reels:
Shaskeen
Paddy Gone To France
Concertina
Farewell To Erin
Darby's Favourite
Humours Of Toomagh
Crowley's
The Camerones
Pigeon On The Gate
The Foxhunters
Jigs:
Lark In The Morning
Gallaghers Frolics
Richard Brennan's
Battering Ram
Ballinacura Hare
Keane's Delight
Slipjigs:
Cock And The Hen
Humours Of Whiskey
Polkas:
Selection from Co. Clare
Selection from Co. Kerry

Thanks, Sam, I've deleted the tune types in parentheses (except for "song"), as you suggested, and more links now show.

Just a small correction there, Trevor. It was Eamon Cotter, not Costello, on flute.
Mike.

Thanks, Mike. That's not the first time a publisher has got important information wrong on a record sleeve

It's a nice light hearted DVD. I really enjoyed watching it being a big fan of the group.

Cock and the Hen
Could somebody help on this tune on the DVD - it sounds like a 2 part version of Kid on the Mountain. Is that correct or does it have another name?
