Note

Notes:
Tracks A1–2 are recorded at 1 7/8 ips on the original tape, the rest at 3 3/4. All the material was inputted to Pro Tools at 3 3/4, & the section at 1 7/8 ips was then slowed down by means of a software facility in Pro Tools
The entire contents of tracks B are dubs from tapes made for the Breathnach CICD project.
On side B of this tape, all the contents plays slightly faster than on the original tapes from which it was dubbed; this has not been corrected.
All of the Denis Murphy material on this tape is a selective copy of the contents of BB_RR_30 = 642-ITMA-REEL = K1
The Micho Russell material on this tape is probably a copy of some of the contents of BB_RR_170 = 138-ITMA-REEL
The John Doherty material on this tape is probably a partial copy of recordings made of him by BB at Reelin Bridge, Co Donegal
Breathnach Sliabh Luachra collection [dubs only]
Digitised from the reel-to-reel tape and catalogued by Jackie Small, January 2007.
Imported from Reeldubs July 2013
