Wolfstone

I think this tune is an amazing tune. I was searching for it and found loads of submissions but they certainly were not the Richard Dwyers i learnt. This is the reel played by wolfstone in the 'dinner set' on they're 'Year of the Dog' Album.

I get very frustrated with the number of names some tunes are given and also names used repeatedly for different tunes, this seems to be a perfect example. There is already a jig and a reel here that are clearly different tunes.

This is my first tune submission so i hope i did the tune justice.

Doubt it...

I can't remember where or who at the moment, but I've heard this before, and am pretty sure it's a recent composition, possibly Scottish, and nothing to do with Richard Dwyer. Just doesn't sound like his style of tune.

Fair Enough

It no doubt has another name, i'm always a little sceptical of tune names listed on album sleaves especially when they give the composer as 'Trad' , if the band doesn't know the name they sometimes just guess.

I echoes Kenny's comments. I'm hearing it being played by some Supergroup in my mind (Altan or Dervish maybe?) but I can't place where I've heard it.

Blazers?

Maybe Blazing Fiddles?

Perhaps that's the tune you were lookin for Kenny?

I play a slightly different setting which I got off Ross Ainslie and Jarlath Henderson's album. It is somewhat closer to this guy's setting, except I didn't initially drop down to the bottom D and play all the crans like the excellent piper in this youtube clip (after my mate showed me this video I do now).

It's the third tune they play.
