DOUGLAS HADDEN | Adrian Barker & Ben Stephenson : 3 reels on fiddle & flute @douglashadden2172 | Uploaded June 2021 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Adrian Barker [ fiddle ] and Ben Stephenson [ flute ]
- “Rolling In The Ryegrass / Julie Delaney’s / The Beauties Of Limerick”
This comes from a great CD of Irish music released in 2006. Ado and Ben dug into the archives of the National Library of Australia and put their own musical stamp on historical recordings of Irish traditional music recorded in Australia, with all due credit and respect given to the source musicians. The recording includes some unusual settings of fairly well-known tunes, a perfect example here being the 2nd reel, listed as “Julie” rather than the more common “Julia” Delaney.
I don’t know where you would find it these days, but well worth seeking out.

Remembering the many good times and music shared with fiddle player and song-writer Ian Sinclair, of Thurso, in the far North of Scotland RIP.
Ian was a member of the quartet Mirk, and this instrumental track - P.M. George Rosss Farewell To The Black Watch / Captain Lachlan MacPhail of Tiree - is taken from their 1982 LP recording Tak A Dram, and is posted here as a tribute. To the best of my knowledge, it was the first recording in Scotland ever to feature electronic bagpipes, played by Andy Corsie.")
