In Ireland the first tune is known as "The Chaffpool Post" and also known as "The Glenbeigh". It's regarded as a barndance more than a hornpipe. This is some outstanding guitar playing.
The first part of the first tune is almost identical to a tune I learned at Whitby Folk Week last year called A Little Cup of Coffee and a Little More Tea. The folk who I picked it up from said it was from Gloucestershire. Here's the only other video of it I can find. A Little Cup of Coffee and a Little More Tea - Lester - melodeon
Hi Tim, the first tune is Irish, a barndance, recorded by Michael Coleman in 1927 as James Gannon's Hornpipe. Gannon taught Coleman and as Coleman left from the USA in 1914 at the age of 24 the tune is perhaps much older still. DeDannan recorded it as the Glenbeigh Hornpipe. it is also know in Ireland as the Curlew Hills.
Sean Laffey There is some discussion on the tune called Bielbie's Hornpipe, first noted on record in 1983, there are on line references , but no dots for a tune of that name from the 18th century. Anyone in Northumbria seen a manuscript of it?
Sean Laffey OK I did a bit more digging on the web, thanks to Andrew Kuntz who has done the big spade work. He reckons it began as a German Polka ,some time around 1840, polkas began to sweep Eurooe form 1835. One early reference (1842) is from Australia.
One of the best Living guitarists ever. His understanding of music and ability to bring alive what he hears in his mind is phenomenal.
Nobody plays like this, astounding !
Check out JP Cormier from Cape Breton Nova Scotia !!!!!!!!
Very good 👍
Nice bump along sound

1st hornpipe is fisher's hornpipe if I'm not mistaken.
1st tune sounds like the Glenbeigh Hornpipe - in parts.
I know the first one as Bielby's, a Northumbrian tune.
wow
Beautiful playing! How did you record it? What mic set up did you use? Charlie
Hi Tim what is your guitar tuned to
And by the way you are the most unreal guitar player I have ever seen.i can see you have so much love for what you do it's amazing 😉
I think it's actually just drop D
The Bodhran Beats dadgad
Good gawd! Are you sure that guitar only has 6 strings?!
I think he has seven fingers
Both sound like James Hill tunes to me.
i got a name for the first.The Glenbeigh Hornpipe but beilbys is the proper name apparently thesession.org/tunes/670
Video is worthless to me because of the sick audio.
