John Hughes playing his Flat Set!

These two sets of tunes were recorded in 2005, during the [u]Causeway Dulcimer Festival[/u] at the Giant’s Causeway Concert.

As a Fiddler, I always love tuning my Fiddle down to play with Flat Pipes, especially with great musicians like John.

[u]Speed the Plough / Hand me down the Tackle[/u]

&

[u]When Sick is it Tea you want / Down the Back lane[/u]

Cheers

Isn’t that Ronan’s Kenna set?

Oooppps, sorry, you are right, that is the Coyne set. Apologies.

Thanks for posting those, Dick…I haven’t seen John for years
(last time was in my kitchen!!!)

I spotted a nice foto of another friend, Trevor Stewart playing his silver plated Rogge concert set in the first clip.

Boyd

Thanks for posting those links, I hadn’t seen those before.

Aye Boyd, Trevor does pop in, but only once in a while.

However his visits are always a treat, especially as they usually mean we end up with Scottish Smallpipes, Northumbrian & Uilleann on the menu. :smiley:

Cheers,
Dick

What a great sound (nice tunes, too). Thanks for sharing the clips!
