EJ Jones on smallpipes at the Mucky Duck Wednesday night Irish session. Just ignore the rough video about 1 minute into it, I had to get away from some loud coversation so you could hear the pipes better.

  • You are right on the money with that one. I've been complaining about it for years, in fact I don't even go to the Mucky Duck anymore because the crowd there always ruins the show.

    I've gone to Ireland three times now though, and found that it's just the same over there. Brilliant musicians that you can't even hear over all the drunken talk. It's sad.

  • From what I understood, that was a set he was making for a customer, and in the the process of tuning out. I could be mixing up sets of pipes tho.

    The name of the middle tune is The Silver Spear, btw.

  • EJ is a great dude... He made my smallpipes.

    He is a very talented player too.

    I would guess this is an older video?

  • Not really, just a couple of months old (note the date in the title). That's Al Cofrin playing on the right, he's in the new Clandestine with EJ.

  • Yep, you are right! EJ says it's called Jack Daniels, it's his understanding that it was written by John Morris Rankin. He learned it from the band Tannahill Weavers and the fiddle player Rosie Shipley. It's on Tannahill's album "Capernaum".

    Now I wish I asked him for the name of the first two tunes cause I don't know what the middle tune is, but I'm not bugging him again! The last one I know as 'Jenny Dang the Weaver'.

  • The piping is very good, the crowd is quite discourteous.

  • ej first class whats the names of the tunes.excpt silver spear

  • faen . . . at folk ikke kan holde kjeft når noen spiller??? Låten er drittbra,-men i engelsktalende land har publikum ikke vett til å lukke kjeften når det spilles!

  • Scottish smallpipes can be either bellows blown or mouth blown.

  • Thanks for the video EJ. Can't wait to get the smallpipes. Btw, nice selection of tunes.

  • ...and then it turns to shite at 2:26

  • EJ is a wonderfu piper, he lives fairly close to me and

    he's supposed to help me with some tuning tips.
