Yeah, I'm late to the party, but my Lord. What fantastic music. The interplay between Katryn Tickell and Richard Thompson is second to none.All three of them are treasures of English-Scottish folk music. Godspeed to all of them.
One of the greatest guitarists on the planet. I'm so glad I became aware of him as a young kid learning to play. Helped me so much. Thank you for this. And thank you ,Richard.
Awesome piping, pity Alistair didn't play Sidney Smith on concertina. Richard Thompson's accompaniment is sublime. For his sheer musical sympathy, diversity and skill isn't he one of the top 10 guitarists in the world? Not to mention and amazing song writer. I'd love to know how rehearsal went into the performance.
That sums him up perfectly, the music is what comes through, he isn't using it to show off his ego as I always feel is happening when I see the likes of Tommy Emmanuel. Not that I'm not in awe of what Mr Emmanuel can do.
@inky4321 Just one school - Wallsend Grammar School - in the years 60-67 saw Alastair Anderson, the two Richardson brothers who went on to the Boys of the Lough and Ian Fairbairn later of Hedgehog Pie and Jack the Lad making music every lunchtime. There was even a rapper sword dance team.
BrusselsRower Doesn't that say it all! Teach 'em early and they'll really appreciate the music of their own heritage. The nearest we got was "Early One Morning" sung by a small group of classically trained singers! The net result was that I wasn't that interested in anything other than pop until I was about 14 when we had a folk club at school (and I soon moved on to one in a pub!).
We are led to believe that the English have no folk music or culture. Thankfully, there is a bastion of hope and beauty out there that teaches us differently. As a north-easterner that has moved away with work, please keep up this wonderful music, without which we would be culturally weakened.
MilesBellas my education has been quite varied, thank you. Your point being? I was posturing that English folk music was not recognised throughout the country as something worth celebrating. Rather that folk music celebrants were derided for their views in England especially. If you can be bothered to pose a proper response, I’d be delighted to reply.
MilesBellas research what? You still have not given me a correctly formulated question, try harder. To give you a hand I could have used ‘one is led to believe’, but that is too formal and, to be honest, a little archaic. The public do not, in general (especially metropolitan England) like or celebrate English folk music. I hope this helps you a little more.
MilesBellas thank you for quoting Wikipedia at me; and here’s you deriding my education... Can you understand the question posed? I shall reiterate once more in case you have forgotten: The public do not, in general (especially metropolitan England) like or celebrate English folk music. I (personally) love it. Discuss...
Horslips did a version of Flower Among Then All on their 1972 album Happy to Meet, Sorry to Part. To think, four idiots disliked these wonderful artists.
@@dickbird3862 I'm too tired to reply, I've been cleaning out the garage all day. But pleased I finally got rid of half a century's worth of scrap metal.
Just a little detail: It's not Sir John Fenwick's 'The Flower Among Them All' - the name of the tune is "Sir John Fenwick's the Flower Among Them All". i.e. it is Sir J.F himself who is the flower among them all, he's not the composer of a tune called 'The Flower Among Them All'
I have nowt to say, except that there are more traditional players based on Tom Clough, Billy Pigg, George Armstrong, Jack Armstrong, Tommy Breckons, Joe Hutton, Chris Ormston, Pauline Cato and me, which delivers a more accurate, proper playing, of the Northumberland small-pipes.

What a pity; only 601 thumbs up after 13 years! Were it that 100 times that number of people heard this priceless playing and loved it.

Fckn lovely. Some of the best of it. Nice recipe. Thanks.

You are spot on, Richard's accompaniment is beautiful rich but subtly understated.
That sums him up perfectly, the music is what comes through, he isn't using it to show off his ego as I always feel is happening when I see the likes of Tommy Emmanuel. Not that I'm not in awe of what Mr Emmanuel can do.
Just watched your clip thank you for inspiring me to practice my uilleann pipes more:::))
Как красиво,душевно!!!!!....

great stuff. i'm trying to find Kathryn's performance with Danny Thompson on 'later with jools holland', so far without success :(
So pretty, so fine--the sound of the Borders (Nhb. side).

MilesBellas thank you for your elucidation of a ‘straw man argument’ via Wikipedia. Please share you own views, if you have any.
I say again - answer the question.
wonderful !

To look on the bright side, idiots to people who appreciate quality exist in the ratio of one to a hundred. I think I can just about live with that.

@@johnshort5003 No rush. I was just trying to put a positive spin on things. Hope you got a good price for the scrap.
The flower among them all... Horslips 1st album
Just a little detail: It's not Sir John Fenwick's 'The Flower Among Them All' - the name of the tune is "Sir John Fenwick's the Flower Among Them All". i.e. it is Sir J.F himself who is the flower among them all, he's not the composer of a tune called 'The Flower Among Them All'
Indeed

Right !
Small pipes are great.
The northumbrian pipes remind me of the uilleann pipes of ireland they almost have a simular sound but these pipes have a quiter more softer sound ?
💖💖💖💖💖
Sound mix is a bit unbalanced but great music and musicianship from all three players here.
❤️👏👏👏👏👍
I'm a lifelong atheist, but I think I may just have died and gone to heaven. Sometimes it's worth being proved wrong.

why swing the concertina?
the guy on the left seemed distracting and barely contributive
don't disrespect the KING

Meaningless.
If you have to ask you won't understand the answer.
