I learned the “Bag of Spuds” a long time ago and associate this tune with the great accordion player Seán Vaughan. It is a common session tune in Clare and I think I first learned it from Edel Fox and Ronan O’Flaherty’s album.

Any suggestions what to pair this wit in a set ?
Hi Clive! It is one of my “go to” tunes when I’m not sure what to play, so I play it in a lot of different combinations, but I particularly like playing after “The Green Fields of Rosbeigh”, in Eminor.
