Notes:
Dubbed to DAT November 1998
Seamus Ennis material on tracks B: May 1971
The Seamus Ennis material on this tape duplicates that on 1248-ITMA-REEL (= Mick O'Connor Reel to Reel 7). Both are poor quality recordings, with severe hum; possibly dubs from each other or from a common original?
Digitised and catalogue updated by Jackie Small, completed March 2005.
Imported from Reeldubs July 2013
ARDI: May 1971, [Seamus Ennis material on tracks B]
