Che meravigliosa musica...con la mente torno al mio viaggio in Irlanda di 7 giorni con mio padre...neanche un giorno di pioggia!! Dio ci ha fatto un regalo...sette giorni indimenticabili nella meravigliosa terra piena di pathos e verde..e tu grandioso Gerry, continua a regalarci emozioni con il tuo inseparabile banjo...un saluto a tutti dalla piccola Svizzera.
Oh this is fantastic. Being an American, I am used to the claw hammer style of banjo players like Mean Mary,(search above) so this is different for me--but I like it!
For those trying to figure out which tunes are being played, this is "Niamh's Capers/The Heather Breeze/The Moving Cloud" from the compilation album Masters of Tradition. open.spotify.com/album/3yigmq8wpGrcaDLxYWxgBJ

The DVD that this comes from is awesome . On one of the encores Winnie Horan breaks into a dance , think its Moouth of the Tobique but not sure . Tom your musical tastes are superb . If you have the Dolans DVD can you put up the Winnie dance

You cant but love this guy .his speed to time is so perfect
Gerry is a national treasure!!
I'm a bluegrass lover but this is banjo playing of the highest calibre absolutely fantastic
