Description

Eamon Flynn composed this slow jig for his daughter Sarah on Valentine's Day when she was five years old. Sarah asked her dad to 'do a song' for her. What a lovely present to get, one that will remain documented forever. This recording comes to us courtesy of Eamon. It was taken from his CD Down by the Glenside, which he recorded with our mutual friend Helen Kisiel playing piano.

Description

Another composition from the multi-instrumentalist Eamon Flynn from Mountcollins in County Limerick. Eamon moved from Boston to The Green Mountain State, Vermont, in 1987. His memories of the hills and fishing brooks of this beautiful state in New England live with him now as he enjoys his retirement (not from music!) in his native Limerick. We hear him playing his own composition with our mutual friend Helen Kisiel playing piano, on a track taken from Eamon's CD Down by the Glenside. Courtesy of Eamon and Helen, I give you 'The Vermont Jig'.

Description

Multi-instrumentalist and composer Eamon Flynn wrote this tune to honour his wife Vicki. Vicki's maiden name was Weaver. This track comes from a CD Eamon recorded with our mutual friend Helen Kisiel, who is often sought after as a piano accompanist by traditional musicians in the Boston area. The CD is named Down by the Glenside, and it features Eamon in full flight on a number of instruments. He is a wonderful musician, composer, and my friend for over fifty years. Thanks, Eamon, for all the music. Your influence in the Boston and New England music scene will forever remain strong.
