Phil Hession wrote re The Liberty Tapes; Paul goes on to tell the audience that he composed a piece of music which the band plays immediately after The Creel for which he had no title, he explains that Donal Lunny provided the title Out the Door and Over the Wall. That might have been what he was expecting. However, the piece that followed was one of Andy Irvine's Balkan tunes that Paul said he had never heard before! The Liberty Tapes captured a high point of Irish music. It's one of the essential albums.
