Part of a 2 CD set featuring many nice tunes (not too common) from very strong session players with tremendous drive.
Attributes: Ormond Sound (Paddy 'Nenagh' O'Brien), Hill 16 (Finbarr Dwyer), The Torn Jacket (Connie O'Connell), Swans Among the Rushes (Ed Reavy), Midsummer's Night (Vincent Broderick)
Presumably both Paddy Taylor's and Paddy Fahy's are named after the composers too.
Despite it being part of a 2 CD cheap compilation set, it was well worth getting. I was a bit risky about getting it but the track listing gave me an idea that this might be a hidden gem and indeed it is.
Cormac Ó Briain: Uileann Pipes
Pól Dorris: Fiddle
Jason O'Rourke: Concertina
Ruadraí Ó Kane: Fiddle
Aiden Walsh: Banjo
Andy Dickson: Fiddle
Adrian Scahill: Accordion
Brendan O'Hare: Flute and Whistle
Ray Gallen: Bódhran
Jim Rainey: Guitar and Bouzouki
A quick bit of googling shows that some of these musicians are based in the Belfast area.
