when i was up in donegal a few weeks ago, i was near silver strand i believe it was called. i went into a tea shop and they had an entire wall dedicated to this man.....nd now i can c y!
Jimmy looked so young (and heavier) in this clip. What an amazing fiddler he was. I just learned that he dropped dead back in November. A sad loss for Donegal Music and a real blow to Connie and the wee girls.
The tunes are Ri Mhin na Salach (The king of Meenasillagh) and The Curly-haired boy. James plays them on the Claddagh recording, "The Brass Fiddle".

Beautiful fiddling at a level only a few have attained. Does anyone recognize the tunes?
