Found a track you might not have heard before, Boyd. Have you heard John Byrne ? Player of uilleann pipes and various wind instruments - heard him playing in Cork last year, and bought the CDs immediately.
PS - programme goes out live in 2 hours. We’re saving Harry for the St.Patrick’s Day programme, [ although it’ll be nearly a week early ].
Errrr…or maybe not. “Technical hitch”, apparently…watch this space. K.
Hi Boyd - uilleann pipes track by John Byrne is about half way through the programme.
There are also flute tracks featuring Michael McGoldrick [ “Trip To Pakistan” ] and Neansai ni Choisdealbha, 2 new releases from Scotland, a great new song from “Danu’s” new CD, fiddle from Duncan Chisholm, guitar from Tony McManus, and a superb bit of “low” whistle playing from Fraser Shaw. If you want a bit of a laugh, listen to “Tuesday Night Is Only Karaoke”.

Hi folks - well, Colin and myself are still on the air, one year after taking the big jump. We took the opportunity yesterday to do a review programme featuring the various live guests we’ve had into the studio since starting a year ago.
The link at the top of the page is still valid - you can hear our “anniversary” programme for the next 6 days.
We include music by the following singers / musicians and [ any flute players should certainly listen to at least the opening and closing tracks ] :
Calum Stewart & Heikki Bourgault
Paul McKenna Band
Alan Carr [ Aberdeen singer ]
Mike Katz & Mike Whellans [ border pipes and blues harp ! ]
“Red Tail Ring” [ USA ]
new track from Richard Thompson
Barbara Dymock & Chris Marra
Marilla Homes [ Australia ]
De Danann
Jean-Michel Veillon & Giles Le Bigot
Still willing to consider any requests !
Still on air…
For our final live programme of 2017, Colin and I decided to do something a bit different. I pointed out on “thesession.org” a week ago that it was 14 years last Friday since Johnny Cunningham departed from us, and bearing that in mind, and with the time of the year, we decided to do a “Christmas pantomime” type of programme.
Johnny was the musical director for a production by the “Mabou Mines Theatre company” of New York which told the tale of Peter Pan using puppets.
A CD was produced of the music accompanying the show - I posted it on “thesession.org” 4 years ago : see link here : https://thesession.org/recordings/4409
The flute player on the CD was Seamus Egan.
We played the CD in its’ entirety from start to finish, our only interruptions being to announce the track titles to give some sort of context. If you want to give it a listen, you can hear it using the “Listen again” facility on the programme’s home page using this link :
http://www.shmu.org.uk/fm/shows/wednesday-session
The programme will be overwritten by a new one - our “Review Of The Year” - on Thursday 28th.
PS - still willing to consider any requests 
Thanks for the thread revival. Being relatively new to Chiff&Fipple I definitely would have missed this.
Is there any way to download past weeks? Or is only the most recent week available?
Hi Aaron - glad you found our programme. I’m sorry, but there isn’t any facility for hearing past shows again. We do most of the programmes live on air, except when the station closes for Christmas. Today’s programme - our “Annual Review” of favourite tracks from 2017 - had to be pre-recorded, as did next week’s programme. We are back on air “live” on the 10th, when we will include a short tribute to local tin-whistle player Alex Green, who passed away just before Christmas - see threads elsewhere - and take a look forward to the Glasgow “Celtic Connections” Festival and also the “Jimmy McHugh” weekend, again in Glasgow, happening around the same time.
Best wishes, Kenny
We were quite pleased with our “St. Patrick’s Day 2018” programme, although I had to present it myself as Colin was a bit under the weather. A bit ahead of its’ time, but it’s online now :

Saddened of course to hear of the passing of Liam O’Flynn [ RIP ], and we do intend making a small tribute to the man and his music next week [ available from Thurs. 22nd ].
Track listing is as follows - it’s not 100% Irish as one of our priorities is always to promote musicians appearing locally. I also managed to dedicate a track to Stephen Hawking. How did I do that ?
After opening “jingle” :
1 - “Junior Crehan’s / Corney Is Coming” - “Planxty” with Liam O’Flynn
2 – “Clifford’s slides”– [from new release “Music In The Glen” - our March “Album Of The Month” ]
- Brendan Mulholland, Conor Lamb and Deirdre Galway
3 – “Ridgeway” – Martin Simpson [ Stonehaven Folk Club last Friday ]
4 –“ The Twin Cities / Winnie Hayes’” – Sean O’Driscoll [ banjo ]
5 – “Thank God We’re Surrounded By Water” – “The Dubliners”
6 – “Downtown” – “Moving Hearts”
7 - ‘JINGLE / WHAT’S ON’
8 – “Highland Harry” – Dougie MacLean [ new release ] Playing Stonehaven 23rd March
9 – “Take Me Out Drinking” - Iona Fyfe – [ new release ] “The Blue Lamp”, Aberdeen 29th March
11 – “Mo Gile Mear” – “Relativity” [ dedicated to the memory of Stephen Hawking [RIP] ]
12 – “Maids Of Mitchelstown” – “The Bothy Band”
PLAY OUT – “McKendrick’s” [ Mohsen Amini on concertina ] - From new release “TMSA Tour 2017”
Does anyone have a favourite Liam O’Flynn track you’d like us to play next week ?
Any memories of him or his music ?
We’re open to suggestions and all will be appreciated.
Many thanks, Kenny
Although the current programme was featuring “new release” CDs from Scotland, there’s are some good flute tracks at the beginning -
1 - “The First Of May / The Wren” - Harry Bradley and Colm Gannon [ The programme was broadcast on 1st of May ]
2 - “Paddy Taylor’s / The Four Leafed Shamrock” - Dylan Carlos, Cein Sweeney and John McCartin [ new release ]
3 - “Aileen’s Slow Jig / The Old Road North” - Calum Stewart and Lauren MacColl
4 - “Around The Hills Of Clare / Ferry Reel” - “Moving Cloud” [ Denmark ]
I’ll leave it to you as to whether or not you listen to the rest of the programme, but these should be of interest to flute players.
Requests are always welcome !
