Go raibh maith agat for the kind words!

You're right about the demos being work in progress! I'm not much of a producer/engineer, nor even - let it be said - do I consider myself much of a player.

I do, however, have a great love of the music. And am willing to share it with like-minded people at minimal cost to them and to me!

Interested in your comments about speed. Lately I'm coming to the conclusion that speed often detracts from the tune. Just as I find from time to time that tune sets are also a distraction. Some of the old-timers that I listen to (John Doherty for example) often eschewed the set in favour of a single tune, and I can't help but feel that they had a point!

Anyway ... regardless of my own stuff, side B is a cracking 45 minutes' worth of QUALITY music. The reel set by The Bucks is one of the most dazzling pieces of virtuoso ensemble playing you are ever likely to encounter, with Paddy Keenan's pipes well to the fore!

Now, go on! You know you want to!
