Nicole Leonard Your unfavourite session tunes? (64* d) RE: Your unfavourite session tunes? 22 Jul 00


I like the Butterfly, Morrison's, Swallows Tail and Staten Island! Got extremely sick of 'Music for a found harmonium' and those two Sharon Shannon tunes I can't remember the name of (the mindlessly cheerful-sounding ones). Also can't stand 'Dirty Old Town', 'Raglan Road' and 'Brown-eyed Girl'. I love Carolan, but not the way he's usually played at sessions. My current favourites are 'Rakes of Kildare' and 'Austin Barretts'. Is 'Saddle the Donkey' anything like 'Shoe the Donkey'? Local sessions usually involve approximately three fiddles, two tin whistles, two guitars, maybe a tenor banjo, plus ten bodhrans!
