IS that Phil C sneaking to the bar...? And having a wee jig too? How grand... How many whiskies would that have been then? Lol.

very nice! I never realized how close Cape Breton music is to Shetland.

Sure looks like him!

Wonderful! Glad I tripped over this video clip. I used to play in the sessions at the Lounge when I was in Shetland in the mid 1970s. Ronnie Cooper was on the piano in those days. And it seemed like everybody could play Da Mirrie Boys O' Greenland even if that was the only tune they knew. Thanks for the flashback and the great music. :)
