How many versions of the Fox Chase have been released on commercial recordings (i.e. not YouTube, internet, etc) and who has recorded it commercially.
So far I know of 2 versions by Seamus Ennis (on the Foxchase album and on Forty Years of Irish Piping). Liam O’Flynn has a version (with orchestral accompaniment) on Out to Another Side. David Power has a version on My Love is in America. I think there’s a version of it on the Chieftains 2 (called the Fox Hunt)
Did Felix Doran and Leo Rowsome record versions of it? Anyone else?

Not all on commercial recordings of course, or necessarily Irish music. Some multiple takes, too.
Mikey Smyth also recorded “The Fox Chase” on his “The Wild Keys” CD. There’s a cracking good version of “The Fox Chase” by Kevin Rowsome in the SCUPC archives as well.
