Enjoyed both but still prefer Mick Tubridy's music. Mick is a real gentleman who will never try to dazzle you. https://i.postimg.cc/NMGzB1mP/DSC-0532-small.jpg Personally I always found Tubridy’s playing quite dazzling. The first of these tunes on the solo cuts on the Chieftains Live album is a shi...

“Coconut Manor no snow no ice!
Ice!...Where did you get it?....

“I mentioned that in Ireland the roads were so narrow and twisty that I found it impossible to play the whistle while driving, as I often did at home. Jaws dropped.” I was completely scandalized by this story! Imagine my shock and consternation at Nick playing the whistle behind the wheel! Nick bei...

Well it seems that this ground has been trodden before. :lol: Let’s head down memory lane to the last century for this rendering of the fine art of distracted driving by my dear friend and colleague, Master Piper, Pipemaker and Uilleann Pipemaking chronicler, Nick Whitmer.
