Graham Townsend Banks Hornpipe Medley

Recorded at a jam in 1986. Dale Teeple played the accordian as back-up for Graham. This was a great medley of Celtic tunes.

It's not hand clapping you are hearing. That was Graham tapping his foot.

Great fiddling. Any way to edit out the ridiculous hand clapping??

what a talent he was

[mactcampbell]

As good a job on these as I have heard yet on these tunes. These tunes were popularized in Cape Breton by Scotty Fitzgerald.

Arthur Seat (J. Scott Skinner), then Eugene Stratton (J. Scott Skinner), then Banks (attributed to "Parazotti").

And nice job, incidentally.

I've owned vinyl albums by Graham Townsend for probably 30-35 years but I never got a chance to see him play. He makes it look effortless. Thanks for sharing.

He was a great fiddler, and he loved these jam sessions and love lots of fun always, it was always a good time whenever he came down to visit. Thanks so much!
