Well, Barney is my hero (if I believed in hero's that is). I've never realy been able to work out what he has (apart from being the one whose playing really got me interested in tb) but I love it - guess there is no point in thinking further. I also have a Johnstons tape, love the Trip To Durrow and 9Pts of Roguery...Here's a player I've only heard once - on "Fiddle Sticks - II), John Carty playing The Heathery Breeze and Finbar Dwyers... I love it - really should find more of him.
