Fred and Peter?

Does anyone know the score with the Fred and Peter titled tunes? Who are Fred and/or Peter? The polka on track 7 has lodged in my brain and won’t go away!

Just checked sound samples on Amazon, first tune of #4 is Peter Horan and Fred Finn’s “Lancers”, https://thesession.org/tunes/13136 .

#7 the entire set comes from Peter and Fred’s playing, but I don’t have a name for the first one other than Fred and Peter’s. Guess I’ll have to learn it and Tunepal it.

Re: For the Sake of Auld Decency

Following up a year later, I just got off my arse and learned the first one on #7 (albeit from Fred and Peter’s recording of it, not this one) and … TunePal doesn’t recognize it. Once the tune has had a chance to sink into my head I’ll post it here (if someone hasn’t beaten me to it).
