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.

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
