Just back from Ireland (which was brilliant!) and catching up - what a lovely session, as always! Thank you so much. I like Paddy Fahy's played in a straight G (not Gm for the A-part). Gra, Alison
So glad you had a god visit, and sorry we just missed each other in Ireland, Alison! And as for the Paddy Fahy tune, Paddy himself played this one pretty Major-y: I was surprised to hear that, when I tracked down his recording. The Martin Hayes (and people who learned it from Martin) have those typical Paddy minor notes.
