    John Sheahan simply is the best (fiddler, tin whistle player, well maybe not the best banjo player ;) and, sadly, the last surviving member of the original formation of the Dubliners (Barny McKenna, Ciaran Bourke, John Sheahan, Luke Kelly, Ronny Drew). May they all rest in peace, as well as my old friend Jim McCann (member of the Dubliners 1974-1979), and may John still enchant us with his proficiency on the fiddle for many years to come.

    I think John Sheahan is one that's not usually in the spotlight but he's been crankin' out the fiddle parts as well as the tin whistle parts for a while, and he's mighty talented! I wonder what he's like as a person

  • @lipliner07
    @lipliner07 Рік тому +7

    I saw John, Eamonn and Barney and few other musicians play all the the Dubliners classics in Vicar Street a few years ago. It was by far the best concert I'd been to in years and I got to share it with my mam. John played The Marino waltz and it was magical. So sad that Eamonn and Barney have since passed. I loved their energy on stage. Just incredible 😍

      @Loki44220 8 років тому +5

      Someones "Paradise" could be "Back home" to a place many memories were made.. A place that reminds you of someone, Makes you feel good inside. My paradise is in the mountains where my dad and I get away from the city and dig for gold. A surfers paradise is a beach with that perfect wave.

    • @roseannereddy9687
      @roseannereddy9687 8 років тому +8

      My paradise is outside my back door! I live near the south-west coast of England. I'm a west coast kind of person. I'm surrounded by chartreuse green grass, big, craggy hills with trees, like the Swiss Alps, mild almost every day. Some wild life; hedgehogs, badgers, foxes, shrews etc. It's like home on the west coat of Ireland, by the sea, with towering cliffs and mountains - and the same chartreuse grass! Similar people and a similar atmosphere. Mmmm... Paradise.

  • @MrPHart
    @MrPHart 10 років тому +266

    I play most of these songs, however I play mostly by reading the score, and only know a few by heart. You can almost always tell when someone is playing from memory, it's the flow and the extras they throw in to trill it a bit more. I started play fiddle at age 58, now 72 but it's been a bit hard to put many of them into my memory. Maybe I can do it when I get to heaven, or maybe I'll only make it to the stairway! ℗.

    • @mattymoi

      Mr. P. Hart I started playing my great great grandfather's violin at 33 but didn't start fiddling until 35 years later - March '16 - and have improved - as one with no talent and dyslexia - more than in all the past years. Love Irish music. I can't remember much and have to use the sheet music.

    • @davewiegmann5812
      @davewiegmann5812 7 років тому +16

      My parents handed me my first violin at age 3. They're german and this is what we do...we play Beethoven and Mozart. ...but then they sent me to my violin teacher who was an Irishman and a fiddle master. ...and I always had much more fun ripping through those Irish reels and jigs. Those classical compositions require so much precision that you can't dance around much. You have to really keep your eyes on the sheet with most of that stuff. The irish stuff you can memorize eventually with enough repetition...doesn't make it any less difficult. There's some Irish stuff I can't play at all, or even come close too, but I'm considered a very good classical violinist. Mediocre Irish player. Anyway, I love both my home culture and the Irish culture. I love everything about the beautiful, soulful, poetic Irish people and I'm married to a gal from Donegal. Love our European heritage. We must protect it from globalization. ..oh and the bluegrass from the USA is great too, it has tons of roots in Ireland.

    Many years ago, I would put my daughter to sleep to MarinoCasino, when she was about 1. I had noticed her becoming relaxed and falling asleep while it was being played. Soon enough, I would play it 5-6 times in a row each night; her father got sick of it. Wonderful memories. :)

Unfortunately the above guitarist (Eamonn Campbell) passed on a few months ago and Michael Howard (Classical Guitarist) played with him on the night. It was one of the most enjoyable evenings I've ever attended.._
