Note
Digitised and catalogued by Jackie Small, January 2014; After this tape was digitised, Larry Masterson supplied information about performers and about the locations and dates of performances on the tape; Larry Masterson is of the opinion that there is only one fiddle player on tracks C13–19 and that that performer is Tommy Peoples. However, it seems to the cataloguer that the performer on tracks C17–19 might not be Tommy Peoples; the performer on those tracks is thus listed as 'unidentified'.; Larry Masterson is of the opinion that there may be recordings of James Kelly and Antoin Mac Gabhann playing a fiddle duet on this tape, recorded in a hotel on Waterloo Rd., Dublin; Some, at least, of the content of this tape might be running fast, with consequent pitch distortion
