episode 1: Introduction

episode 122: The Wren Hornpipe
Here's another tune from O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland. I hadn't noticed it before, despite its being there since 1907. I don't remember ever seeing a wren either. Maybe because they're so small.
episode 125: Clarkson’s reel
Tune number 748 from O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland - 1001 gems There are 1000 tunes in this book with better names but only some of them are better tunes.
episode 124: The Cat in the Corner (jig)
O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland tune number 129 I probably would have been better getting the cat to play it.
episode 121: The Tongs by the Fire (jig)
Here's another tune from Francis O'Neill's 'Dance Music of Ireland - 1001 Gems'. My understanding of 'gem' in today's context is a tune without syncopation and notes keeping close company with other notes they don't get on with.
episode 120: Molly What Ails You? (reel)
Here's tune number 652 in O'Neill's Dance Music of Ireland. It's the best tune between tunes 651 and 653.

episode 117: The Church Street polka
Here's a tune I was asked to post here. It's a great tune but I can't play polkas, so I never play them, so I can't play them, so I never play them, so ... The associated polka dots are here: https://thesession.org/tunes/1560
