@jazlabaw Sadly I don't have a recording of him playing this tune - it's not on "The Last House In Ballymakea" which has all of 25 tracks on two CDs! I'd like to hear his version as well. Going by a recording I've heard of him playing "The Golden Castle", another hornpipe of his own, I'd expect it to be much slower than this, and possibly swung a little more. Someone else may know more. . .
PS
This tune is composed by the late, great Junior Crehan. Does anybody know how close their version is to his original setting?
