Dedicated to Dr. Patrick Byrne


Dr. Bryne took wonderful care of my wife before, during, and after seven cancer operations at Johns Hopkins Medical Center.

Both tunes were arranged by Glen Weiser

Sounds a bit dry on this recording; probably needs some reverb.
Or maybe I need someone to play a bhodran!

'Walker Street Reel' is also known as "Traveller's Reel".
'Byrne's Hornpipe' also goes by "Tommy Hill's Favorite".

Both are indexed in 'O'Neill's Music of Ireland'.

It's wonderful to see a grassroots resurgence of traditional music in ths USA. The "Walker Street Fiddlers, here in NC, is a good example. Organisations like these are passing on this great music to young folk and will ensure its survival........... http://www.thewalkerfamilyband.com/?page_id=11
