Scartaglen Polkas
This is probably the last of this stuff from the archives that I’ll upload. Rescued from a cassette tape of a live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen. These tunes are popular down in the Southwest of Ireland. Michael(Fiddle) and I seemingly couldn’t be much bothered with actually playing the melody of the last tune and kept improvising around it. Kinda sloppy, but the energy was pretty good that night.
These are such fun tracks. Sheer listening pleasure. When I was a senior at school, I used to hold a country dance class for the younger ones in the gym at lunchtimes. They used to display on Sports Day. Your music really has my feet tapping.
Oh, this is great, I love you guys. Wish we had been there, Tess and I missed such a treat! Good job I have my faves list!
Such a class act!
Well played! Full of changes like from majeur to mineur and back, good one!
Very good! Reminds me of my time in Limerick, Ireland. I was there studying last spring =).
Thanks Kirk, listening to my older stuff, i am very suprised how well i got the guitar to sound, with very little recording equipment..

Is It For You solo: that is simply a MXR distortion+ and my Fender Mustang with Bartolini pickups - a touch of reverb in Cakewalk Pro Audio. This was recorded in 2000. Thanks for the listen and comment!

It gets my Irish up. To early for a beer? Nah!!! Where's my Irish Red.....Cheers.
Scartaglen was a Kansas City based Celtic music group that formed in 1982 and produced three albums (all now out of print) before disbanding in 1994. The group was composed of co-founder Roger Landes, vocalist and keyboard player Connie Dover, Michael Dugger, Kirk Lynch and Rebecca Pringle. It's amazing what you can find on the internet.
Very FNG! That would be very cool if we could work this sort of thing into an Illegal Alien track.
sweettt!
Wheeeeeeee! SPLENDID!!! Please reconsider and upload more! I love traditional music, and this is just wonderful!
Oh brilliant, brilliant! What fun, I'm right in there. Well played all.
Cool jams.
