A set of hornpipes on banjo and mandolin, Chief O'Neills favourite / The Little Beggarman / Rights of man

Ewan McColl's folk standard. Written about Salford, an area of Manchester (and not about Dublin as many people think!). made famous by The Pogues and the Dubliners to name a few. Mine is a more mellow take on this classic...

My version of a Barney McKenna (the Banjo player with the Dubliners) favourite.

A classic song made famous in Ireland by the singing of Christy Moore.

My interpretation of a song written by Hugh McDonald from the Australian folk group Redgum. The tale of an australian cattle drover. Christy Moore was the first person I heard singing it.

An Irish Hornpipe.

Trad (Reel) - I learned this reel from a Bothy Band album. Flatpicking acoustic guitar - backup in DADGAD, tune played in standard.

This was a favourite tune of Chief O'Neill (you don't say!) an Irish police captain in the USA who used to enlist Irish musicians into the police force so they could play music sessions together.
