Green Fields of the Valley

Track 3 are all reels.
Track 5 are Donegal hornpipe/Donegal reel/Olive branch
The words “jig” “reel” “hornpipe” did not come up when i submitted post, for some reason or other.
Date on CD cover is - June 2003.

I have been trying to get hold of a copy of this album for years; where did you find it? I would ask for a copy but if it is still available it would be better to get it at source. I heard one track ages ago on TG4 and was blown away. Sadly I believe Danny O’Connell, who was only young, has passed away.
