Every time I see a vid of yours, it seems you have a different whistle! How many do you have in your collection? I haven't got a "bluebird" as of yet, but I plan on buying one from Jerry Freeman that is "tweeted". How do you like yours? Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁
Probably he could have moved in a bit, but in this case I think it's okay.
Besides, if one can train himself to learn tunes just by listening, it is a useful, and if you're really into hardcore tradition, essential skill. Not many recordings in 1940s and 1950 had video.

Thanks for this. I always heard the second tune called The Old Frost IS All Over
Of course some of the tunes have 5 names

The whistle is longer than the standard D.

Thanks. No criticism intended but I wondered if you might sit back a little further in the future so we could see both hands?

I heard it in D on the Kerry Fiddles album. (not Kerry Jigs! Sorry..)
Played in that key, really gives it a lively touch. However played in this Bb, really gives that sppoky, eerie, mesmerising feel.
You should go listen to Kerry Fiddles. Great album.
