These guys are just great. When they're in full swing, it's hard to believe that there is just two musicians playing.

When they came to the So. California Uilleann Pipers club tionol 2 years ago, they gave an evening house concert that was exceptional. You can hear it on the club's "7 Years Listening" CD. It was a magic night that I'll never forget. ...and I wasn't even loaded. :D

Music is the better high... not that it would stop me from getting loaded now and then... hmmmmm, mebbe today. Sit outside in the moist air, piping and getting schnokered.

I really look forward to any future recordings by these guys. Kitty Lie Over is still one of the 5 Cd's in my shelf stereo... and that's saying something positive (coming from moi :D ) as I rarely have the same Cd in the player for any real length of time.

I can hear the music but not see the vid

Are there moving pictures for the links or not?

(if so, how do I get them to work??)

Thanx

Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.

It was a favorite allright...what I remember of it. I thought it was sooo great that I lended it out to someone, not sure who. Probably some fiddler I wanted to convince to tune down.

I do have Seven Years of Listening to fall back on. Much of KLO is on that double cd, and more.

Same problem :/
Doesn't work at all in firefox, and IE6 with the latest flash gives me a white rectangle.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Dude, the same thing happened to me. Well, I know who I lent it to, but the lendee swears I never lent it to him. Obviously the CD is bewitching on more than one level...

Well it wasn't me. I've got my own copy. But that's not why I'm posting this. Just wanted to say that Flash 8 is actually a good free update to get as the video quality is much better. In fact, things have gotten so much better that I'll be re-encoding the tionol videos (Power, D'Arcy, Cannady... the list goes on) on the GNIPC site to full-sized soon. Much nicer than the teeenee tiny little things we're so used to seeing.

I put up a test at medium quality here:

It's David Power playing a zippy little tune.
