“Bó Mhín Na Toitean” is a strathspey I learned a long time ago when I was still in Switzerland. It comes from the playing of the great Donegal band Altan.
I learned ”The First House in Connaught” from a one of Doolin’s legends, concertina player Packie Russell. It is an old favourite amongst concertina players in County Clare and has been recorded by Paddy Murphy, Tom Carey and Dympna O’Sullivan among others.
“Joe Killmurray’s” is a slip jig I learned from Peter Carberry and Pádraig McGovern, it is the opening tune of their wonderful album “Forgotten Gems”. I actually received this album as a birthday give from Tom Delany
