To start 2025, we’ve chosen another selection from Tony MacMahon’s and Tom Davis collections, featuring among others sessions from the 1973 Fleadh Ceoil in Listowel. In 1973, Tom was in Listowel and managed to record a variety of well-known musicians, including Joe Burke (1939-2021, this time on tin whistle) playing a haunting air An Droighnean Donn. A young Paddy Glackin teamed up with brothers Paddy and Michael Gavin for two lively reels. Likewise, a young John Regan was in great form playing a couple of classic tunes on the box. We are fortunate also that Tom was on hand to record the distinctive voice of Mairéad Ni Mhaonaigh (of Altan fame), only a teenager at the time. https://www.itma.ie/playlists/padraics-picks-february2025/
