“The Collier’s” is a common session tune and one of my favourite reels. I associate this tune with the great Tommy Peoples, but also with my friend John Fitzpatrick, who is a great local whistle player here in Doolin with a style that reminds me very much of Micho Russell.
I recorded this tune with my friend JB Samzun on our album “Aughavinna” which we released in 2020. If you’d like to support Tunes From Doolin you can order a CD or Digital Download Here.
I also published a video of “The Collier’s” on the YouTube channel, you can watch it below!

Very nice music but it’s a pity it has no chords,
kind regards ,

Thanks for the comment Martin! Unfortunately I am “only” a melody player and wouldn’t know much about chords
