I played at playing the guitar and banjo for 15 to 20 years and succeeded only in running the flying squirrels out of the attic. They're now in their cases and the surroundings are more serene around here. I reserve them for critter control and listen to the accomplished players like these guys.
@@FiddleDeeDee5 That’s nice! My mom was a local fiddle player but her sound got my heart singing a joyful song🥰 What other artists do you love listening to?
Scottish, dear boy, not Irish..., and this was the Scots immigrant music brought over the Atlantic to create the heart of bluegrass. Much as I enjoy bluegrass, Scottish fiddle tunes are the best.
The second tune, "Glass of Beer" is def an Irish tune. Not sure about the first one. But I'll admit I'm not well versed in the differences between Irish and Scottish trad. These tunes are played in Irish sessions, not sure why we're splitting hairs over Scottish vs Irish
i came over here because of my Sunshine opened a new horizon of mind to listen such type of music. and i am loving it. ------Love can make you do anything.
Ally Bain reminds me of the sort of dispassionate matter of fact islander moors the overnight ferry onto the dock into Orkney in the morning and wanders off home: like it’s nothing. Reassuring dispassion? Yes definitely
yes it's wonderful you should also listen to the first real of transatlantic sessions serious 6 I think it's a little better but absolutely brilliant both
Why so he is! I guess I was swamped by all the talent that I missed that one. I remember something I read, way back, about a world famous violinist who, upon leaving a concert was approached by a woman who said, "I'd give anything to play like that!" He replied something to the effect of, "would you practice for hours every day for 30 years?" That hasn't anything to do with left-handed playing, but I thought I'd throw it out there in the midst of talent and much work.
A good start of TS 5. I will preorder the DVD as soon as I get the news from Scotland. But why director Mike Alexander, did you choose another dark and cold cellar? Compare the bright and warm atmosphere in TS 3. I hope everyone knows that TS 2 is released - at last.
Great track. I love these Ali Bain sessions. Any other good albums by the guy? All the other stuff that I've heard of his has too much squeeze box in the mix
Thanks for the laughs John kenny can i have two of them for one of these and i love the Mangled badger i know the difference between the masons apron and the maid behind the bar now stone masons daughter here Plain Jane
Two fiddle players, both right handed. Dobro is being played right handed, as is the accordion. Upright bass is being played right handed. Drums? Who knows about those guys! Flute: left handed. It's the only one, and he doesn't weigh a ton.
Transatlantic Sessions are the reason we have ears! 😍
Smoothest transitions ever. Loving the musical excellence.
This is the royalty of Celtic music!
I can´t stop listening to this. Especially that intro. For me it´s the prettiest reel ever.
I love the music of my/our culture, it never gets old.
I LOVE transatlantic sesssions! folk music at its best
I'm not Irish or Scottish but I nearly cried when I heard this!
What can you say brilliant craftsmen love you all XXX🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Glass of Beer is such a head-banging happy tune.
Whatever land you're at I need to be their! Where the folks all sing and headbang💯💯💯
I'm Scottish and Irish is awesome to go back to my roots❤❤

This is how it was when I was growing up, good music and happy smiles! How I miss those days.
Is it not like that today David!

When did you became a fan if I may ask?
@@scottrichard2735 I am a fiddle player and have been listening to these guys for at least 15 years

@@scottrichard2735 Lunasa is at the top of my list.
This is an awesome Irish/bluegrass fusion. The dobro, bass, and drums fit right in and everyone is nailing it! Love it
Jason Biggs Huge SCOTTISH influence!

@@dolcefarniente8768 you are so right. the early scots would have brought this music to the america.
Great musicians
Amazing performance!!
FANTASTIC SOUND! Great energy in the playing of the instruments. Makes me want to get up and dance.
Well my darlin' I hope you got up and danced.
Brilliant!
Literally the most beautiful assault on my ears EVER. Aly Bain is genius
They're all such incredible musicians! Wow!

He’s a Shetlander (my Mum was at school with him) but he’s so chilled out he probably wouldn’t mind you calling him an Orcadian 😁
MOAR!
Beautiful lads, I'd join a session with yous any day
If yer were good enough
David I'd like to say u free Man I can't make up ur mind for u I'm here you know this❤
Just came back for my daily upper, just brilliant! :D
أحببت هذه المقطوعة حقيقة مبدعين
بكتب بالعربي 😊
VERY VERY NICE CETIC-CAPE BRETTON-SHETLAND-COUNTRY STYLE!
shit hot......love it!!!!
The guitar player is also playing left handed. Man, that was incredible.
John Doyle? Oh this song only scratches the surface of what he can do. Possibly the best acoustic guitarist I have ever heard.
@Musicman1582 Not sure about the first one, but the second one is "The Glass of Beer". Although, it was transversed to how I normally know it.
That is an interesting thought. However, if I did practice everyday for thirty years, I am still not sure I would be playing like this. :)
Why can’t the Beeb repeat these programmes and show real talent than all the rubbish we have on today?

Found this vid. Pretty mad he was my neighbour for about 9 years. Would go in his house and see all sorts of people playing a song
eyyy, el guitarrista y el bouzuki son zurdos!! Molaaa!

I would buy all the TS's as a boxed set dvd and cd! somebody help me!
A good start of TS 5. I will preorder the DVD as soon as I get the news from Scotland. But why director Mike Alexander, did you choose another dark and cold cellar? Compare the bright and warm atmosphere in TS 3.
I hope everyone knows that TS 2 is released - at last.
.. not to forget Donal Lunny
I love to watch their faces when they're all on a brain-to-brain network. Some would call it a hive mind. Others...the Borg.
Oi! B-e-a-utiful!
It's like a shot of whisky to the arm!
love the bowed triplets but it needs the ornaments!
Great track. I love these Ali Bain sessions. Any other good albums by the guy? All the other stuff that I've heard of his has too much squeeze box in the mix
Thanks for the laughs John kenny can i have two of them for one of these and i love the Mangled badger i know the difference between the masons apron and the maid behind the bar now stone masons daughter here Plain Jane
Jake west enjoy 🎶🍀🎼👍🎹😇
😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
So many lefties in the great band.
Does somebody knows the name of first 15 seconds peace? Thank you.
What are the tunes/set called?? Would love to learn these tunes!! Do you know where I can find them?
The first one is the Milky Way by Vincent Broderick, and the second one is The Glass of Beer in Em/G - some play it in Bm/D.
Thanks for the correction on the first tune...was going nuts trying to find it on The Session. D:
álainn,saúdos dende ghalissia
Great stuff but I think the first reel is "The Milky Way" not "The Boys of 25"
1:20 :)
It's obvious that I need to start playing left handed to be any good at it.
Shetlander
Heard this a million times and I still hate every time the guys ego floating up at the end "that's what the a team does for you"
