This is "the other side of Irish traditional music" - it brings together polkas, slides, flings, hornpipes, the mazurka, waltzes & barn dances - music of the country-house dances of rural Ireland and the dance halls of Irish-America. About 1/3 of the recordings are taken from superbly re-mastered 78s (1925-1950s), while the rest comes from studio & live recordings from the '60s & '70s. Features Michael Coleman, Johnny Doherty, Johnny O'Leary, Jimmy Power, Julia Clifford, the Flanagan Brothers, Hugh Gillespie, Paddy Killoran, Frank Quinn & others.
