Pssst....

The Jig is really, and truly Da Full-Riggit Ship,........ ;)

and on track 16, the Gan Ainm is realy a Quebecois Tune called Le Lys Vert (the Green Lily). I firts heard on it played by La Bottine Souriante along with the Chieftains.

The second 'untitled' tune in the first set is Shamrock Hill. I finally found a name for it after a long time playing and hearing it!

Other Gan Ainms to fill in:

Track 17, the two untitled jigs on either side of the Eavesdropper are The Wandering Minstrel and Bill Collins's Jig, also known as Dan Collins's Father's Jig.

Track 4, I think the second reel is a version of The Flower of the Flock.

I think the last tune in track 5 is a setting of The Navvy on the Line... I don't have the list of who plays which sets but I'd put fair money on that being Niall Keegan, so it's probably his own 'special' setting, god love him! :)
