Richard Mecia and John Crawford play a range of traditional music - this short excerpt with dodgy sound quality (apologies) does not really do them justice

What's the tune called?

Sorry, but I don't know. Richard and John will be playing at the Lambley Arts Festival public meeting this month (Nov 09), so if I get the chance to ask them I will. Or come along and ask them yourself!

You cannot comprehend how much this makes me miss the British Isles, my home. Wonderful playing.

In future just think of it as English music that Irish groups sometimes play.

[MissAbandoned]

Only just discovered this and brings back such wonderful memories and how I miss those memories. John has always been an absolutely brilliant player and Richard, well most definitely a heart-breaker but he already knows that. A.

@RandomSam189 If you want to hear good traditional English music on Youtube search for John Kirkpartrick, Pete Coe, Brian Peters, Mary Humphries & Anahata. These are some of the best performers on the English Folk scene, but there are lots more. Also try Vin garbutt, a great writer of contemporary songs.
