I heard this reel played by Frankie and Mairéad on their first album "Altan".

Hi,

This was posted recently as Lavin's from Tim Collins' CD.

Also, not trying to be smart, just letting you know that there was an album Ceol Aduaidh before Altan.

Yes, there was Ceol Aduaidh, but it only featured Frankie Mairead. Altan was the first album with Mark Kelly and Ciaran Curran.

If I am not mistaken, Ciaran Curran is to be heard on Ceol Aduaidh, as well as Mairead's brother Gearoid and the great Fintan McManus.
