This is a version of the well-known jig Apples in Winter (standard setting here). I got it from Jack Talty and Aine Bird on the album “Tunes In The Church”, and it comes from the playing of Tom Carey and Solus Lillis I believe.

“The Banks of Newfoundland” is a very nice jig I heard during the Russell Weekend 2013 with Christy Barry and Terry Bingham. Terry got it from John Blake, Lamond Gillespie and Mick Leahy’s album “Traditional Irish Music From London”.
“Give Us A Drink Of Water” is a slip jig which I learned through various sessions. I associate this tune with James Devitt, fiddle player from Kilfenora.
“The Pipe On The Hob” is a very old tune that is quite common in sessions around Doolin. I associate this jig with Christy Barry and James Devitt.
