Jerry Holland's first recording, from 1990. It was originally only available on cassette but a CD version is now available from Jerry Holland's website. It is a superb album with a great feel.
Dedicated to the late John Morris Rankin, fiddler, piano player & bassist (The Rankin Family) and one of the fine Cape Breton musicians featured on this recording. The recording is of a gathering of friends around music ~ Jerry Holland, John Morris Rankin & Dave MacIsaac, all fine folk and musicians.
John Morris Rankin, member of the 'Rankins', died, age 40, January 16th, 2000, when his truck plunged into the ocean at Whale Cove, near Margaree Harbour...

Thanks to ceolachan; I didn't realise that putting a composer's name on the listings prevented the system linking to tune transcriptions.
