NOEL HILL & TONY MacMAHON: I gCNOC NA GRAI - IN KNOCKNAGREE
Noel Hill: concertina
Tony MacMahon: accordion
Another fantastic duet album (1985), this one featuring with Hill the great Clare accordion player Tony MacMahon. The recordings were made in Dan Connell's pub in Knocknagree, in the heart of Sliabh Luachra, and, with dancers whooping ans stomping along, the atmosphere is simply electric. Brilliant.
