Five comments

Great Paddy Fahey tune, one of the best out there, played by the Kane sisters.

Also on East Galway fluter Sean Moloney’s “Potsticks” CD, played on the wooden Boehm flute.

I know it’s lazy of me but could you tell us which track/album this particular Fahey one is.
I kinda feel they should be cross-referenced in the comments section of the recording otherwise the linkage between Tune name on recording and the listing in the Tune section cannot be made. I feel that the same should apply to Gan Ainm’s that are listed as such on the album sleeve.
Someone help me take off this anorak 🙂

It’s on “Under the Diamond,” Liz and Yvonne Kane, track #3. First tune in a set of three. There’s another Fahey reel after it, and then some other tune I’ve yet to learn. ;)
