Cregg's Pipes

"This three part version of Cregg's Pipes was recorded by the Flanagan Brothers in New York in 1927. It includes a part which is common with the opening part in "The Coalminer", another of the "big" Flanagan reels."

This is what Paul Brock says about this version of the reel on his 'Mo Chairdin' LP.

Paul Brock plays it in A....

... and it's a fantastic rendition too!

Lunasa

I like how Lunasa plays this tune, it's very beautiful and calming, especially the chords they use in the third phrase.
