Billy’s Reel

I’m not usually a fan of tunes in A major, - Chris Norman once described it as a “weak” key on the flute - but I do like this one. It was composed in the last 10 years. Anyone care to take a guess as to the composer’s name, where it is recorded,and who “Billy” is ?

Shot in the dark…

…Karen Tweed?

Composer does play accordion, but it’s not his main instrument. Good try, though, Paddy

OK

Composed by John McCusker, for “Billy Connolly’s Musical Tour Of New Zealand” series of TV programmes in 2004. Michael McGoldrick plays it on flute, along with John and some others on the CD.
