The Boys and Girl From County Clare Music
Okay, so after going into the site www.boysandgirlfromcountyclare.com clicking on the picture, a menu pops up and after the menu finishes loading a tune plays...can anyone recognize that tune for me?
Thanks!

The second jig is Gillan's Apples. I can't seem to find the first one, though it's very familiar (perhaps from having seen the movie recently or from listening to the website track a bunch of times).

Have finally just seen this film! Never mind the bad scripting, the bloopers etc.. Had great fun looking up lots of details all over the Chiff and finding that the geezer in the beginning of the film is Ptarmigan, and about all the actual musicians who did the soundtrack work.
Oddly I thought at 2 separate times in the film, the geezer-looking flute players seemed to be actually playing, but surely they were not Paul McGrattan and Harry Bradley in disguise as geezers. ok..

and then..?
Happy New Year folks,

I made a quick stab at this a few years ago. I haven't revisited the list to fill in the gaps, but it is what it is. The numbers are time markers in the DVD version of the movie.lesl wrote:I'd thought this thread would have a listing of all the tunes in the film.

The original post was from April 2005. The film's website has expired and gone to meet its maker. It has passed on. It's a stiff. Joined the bleedin' choir invisible. It is an ex-website.

Geezers
The flute-playing "geezers" were Les Bingham, Tara's dad, and Brendan O'Hare from Belfast, or thereabouts. Both very accomplished players.

Great MTG, when we re-watch it I'll add to the list if any familiar titles "resurface" in my mind.
and wondered were they the very same ones, but of course there's no information there if you click on their names (and I don't know their faces).
I can't get over how just a tiny bit of camera editing could have handled the non-playing actors. But aside from being thrown 'out of the film' by all the goofs, it was fun to watch.
There are also a few other familiar-looking names listed on IMDB who I thought were musicians, but not sure which ones. Have to go back and look at the film credits as they roll by, hopefully they're credited.
Thanks Kenny. I saw their names on the IMDB http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0337631/fullcredits#castThe flute-playing "geezers" were Les Bingham, Tara's dad, and Brendan O'Hare from Belfast, or thereabouts.

I made another pass through the DVD, filled in the gaps, and tightened up the timings. The 3 cues with question marks are too much in the background or too short to get a good fix on them. And the cues with no instrument indicated are played by either a band or a session group. Enjoy!

There are a couple of clever cues, too. When the band is asleep on the ferry from Liverpool, the tune is "The Trip We Took (Over the Mountain)". And when they arrive, you see a street banner announcing something like "All Ireland Fleadh", and the cue is an obscure tune "The All Ireland". It would have been fun if the filmmakers had done more to correlate tune titles with the on-screen story, as a sop to music geeks like us.
I really like The Humours of Castlefin, when the fiddler is playing with the gypsies in the car park. It's a new tune to me that's going in my repertoire!
