Kevin Burke and Cal Scott Fiddle and Guitar

I can't tell you enough about the playing of these two masters. Kevin Burke is so smooth he is with no doubt my top favorite fiddler. Cal Scott has written dozens of pbs scores and I love to play his composition, the Lighthouse keepers Waltz. Check out their new cd Across the Black River

I agree, Cal is a highly accomplished musician and he is a real nice guy. Kevin Burke would only pick the best to play with him and to co-record a cd .

love u guy's. Sam

Fiddlingsam, there is a problem. When you hit the button. The picture and the music is not coming up. You may need to reset this video, something has gone wrong. I want to review the video. It is not working here. That fine player isn't being heard.

[fiddlingsam]

Must be on your end. I can play the video with no problem.

Fantastic! Great tunes too. What tuning does Carl Scott use?

[fiddlingsam]

I believe it is drop d.

[fiddlingsam]

I hope you all enjoy this as much as I do

Anyone who thinks Frankie Gavin was ever GOD should listen to Kevin and rethink their fiddle theology.

@MichaelMAFox I disagree. You gotta give the guy props for keepin up with such an awesome fiddler.

[ErikDRed1]

I really don't see how anybody could dislike this.

[MichaelMAFox]

The guitar ruins it

@BX500 Last Tune is exactly the 2nd time around of "WTST Barley" by Liam O'Flynn on Planxty's "Cold Blow and Rainy Night." He only plays it first time thru; then he returns to the version he played 1st time thru.

I love this!

[stuartjava]

Your amazing! I hope that some day I will be able to play as well as you do!

I got to see these two in seattle and it was a great performance. Kevin Burke is truly a master of the fiddle and all his albums are great. Cal Scott is a great guitarist and a decent singer/song writer.

@BX500 You are correct, Boys of the Lough / / / Wind that shakes the Barley. I just posted this same info. only to see that you had got there first. :-)
