Unbelievable….

Posted 7 years ago, and not a single comment, even from the guy who posted it. This was Desi’s “chill-out” album, as he once described it to me. It’s almost all airs and slower tunes from several traditions - even the last set of reels are slowed down. A unique - and very bold album, as it must have been very difficult to market a traditional Irish flute album with no jigs, hornpipes, and only 2 slow reels on it.
He plays a variety of flutes made by Sam Murray, Martin Doyle and Patrick Olwell.
The reason I’ve posted this is that I’ve just noticed that it is available on iTunes.
