Got this cd today- listened to it a couple of times and it’s excellent. I saw Edel live a couple of times and she is brilliant-i think she is a member here….
Best CD this year. Has A lovely West Clare feel to it

I just thought I’d add a little note in case there’s someone out there as slow as I am: Track ten, listed as The Sligo / Leitrim Bucks is not the Sligo reel followed by the Leitrim Bucks, it’s just the Sligo and Leitrim version of the Bucks. I couldn’t work out why there were two tunes listed but only one played until I realised the geographic connection between the two counties!
Also, this CD rocks! I’ve been listening to it just about constantly since I got it.
A gem of a cd. The Leitrim Bucks is terrific. Reminds me of the other Bucks played by Joe Cooley. (which says a lot!)
Correct link for John Brennan’s
The last tune on this CD, John Brennan’s, can be found on thesession.org here:

not at the page that is linked from the track listing.
Recently met and listened to Ronan at Tig Coili in Galway. Nice guy and a brilliant fiddler. Keep an eye on him.

"Gan Ainm" jig at the start of Track #9 is "The Chicago" jig : https://thesession.org/tunes/2096

Track #12 links to the wrong "Whinny Hills Of Leitrim" - it’s this one : https://thesession.org/tunes/8976
