Jackie Daly (accordion) and Alec Finn (bouzouki) play "Mr. O'Connor" on the programme Aisling Gheal at the start of the 1980s. The presenter of the show was Cathal O Searcaigh.
@Timothydlol Even though it's 3/4 time, it's historically before the waltz. Technically you'd call it a Planxty, which was a tune composed for a patron. This was composed by the blind harpist Turlough O'Carolan, either late 17th or early 18th century

THIS is how the bouzouki should be played, as far as I'm concerned. Alec is total class!
