Paddy Killoran & James Morrison: From Ballymote to Brooklyn

PADDY KILLORAN / JAMES MORRISON: FROM BALLYMOTE TO BROOKLYN

Paddy Killoran: fiddle

James Morrison: fiddle

This is a reissue of the two LPs originally released by Shanachie in the 1970s, themselves being reissues of 78 recordings by the two greats of Sligo fiddle playing. The recordings have been re-mastered afresh and the sound quality is quite good. Among the 24 tracks are well-known solos by the two players, as well as some of their great duets, Killoran with fellow Sligo fiddle player Paddy Sweeney, Morrison with the likes of P.J. Conlon (melodeon) and John McKenna (flute). It is a treat indeed to hear these again.
