Swarb is his usual magnificent self, but Simon produces absolutely storming accompaniment, chugging rhythm, elegant twiddles, blue notes and all. Two of the great acoustic talents. (my missis reckons Swarb has sold his soul to the Devil. Or is the devil).

Swarb's the best. Been following his music for decades...from Canada.

@OBEJOYFUL2007 Old Nick is said to be a class one fiddle player.

Is this around the same time that put out an album, just the 2 of them. It had a stunning version of 'Si bheag si mhor' I have it somewhere, I think. Do you have it? Could you post it? It is simply breathtaking.

And to think this complete genius only ended up playing fiddle by accident!
-
I'll never forget getting Dave's first solo album "Rags, Reels and Airs in 1968. I wore it out and had to get another copy. Later that year I was doing a folk programme on Radio Eireann and Hen's March to the Middens was my intro.

I produced bot the clips from pebble Mill@1 and Simon was much envied for his charity-shop couture lol!
-
oh this is just soooo good:):):):)
-
Yes it is indeed the old Peble Mil at One show from Birmingham's Pebble Mill studios. Swarbrick is a true musical genius and he's still gigging, I'll be seeing him at The Omma N'Chain club in the Black Country in Nov

Yes it was broadcast live on a lunchtime TV show called "Pebble Mill at One" from BBC Birmingham's old TV studios in 1981, I'm afraid I don't have the date. See also "Time to Ring Some Changes" the song that closed the same show, and "Three Drunken Maidens" from the show a couple of years later.
