Close as i can get to Junior Crehans Solo Version Here About 1:06

But with obvious stylistic differences.....indecision...Probably do another version without all the diddleys in it. But this is how it is at the moment. Phone atop the whisky glass recording

Pete, I first listened to your version, that is great playing to me. It makes me wonder what could help to reach this : steady rhytms , very fast but still very melodious. Very nice tune version!

Then I had a look at the video , I think he plays slightly ( just a tiny bit) slower ....but what I don't understand is how his bow for the most part of the tune hardly seems to move?

Does your bow also seem to tend to stick pretty much to the same point?

WOw so good, Pete!! :-D

I also had watched/listened to Junior playing his own tune!

...and I also admire this version by one of my favorite fiddlers Grace Broadhead…here with bouzouki backing:

I am stuck with no instrument (travelling)
but aim to get back to learning this when I get back home. :-)
