So after a devastating performance like that - the first thing he does is put the tea cup back upright - even though it wasn't him who knocked it over. Extraordinary :)
Martin I saw you in Ennis years ago you recorded a session for Clare FM in the West County I am originally from Sixmilebridge and you remind me of home every time you play simply magical
It's Kevin Crawford. Contrary to popular belief, he's there to tell jokes. But when he does play - oh man... there's flute playing, and then there's what he does.
I'd say John Doyle's backup is a brand of oblique harmonies and rhytms, be assured he knows what he is doing. These guys (all three) are among the best in the world.
Sometimes you feel the earth simply disappear beneath your feet and you end up in heaven ...
The syncopation when Doyle kicks in kills me. Masters!!
Last 3 minutes just makes me smile, so good
I've been at concerts and events where Martin has had men crying with the tenderness of his tunes.
no matter how many times I watch that video it never fails to amaze me
The last tune is a beautiful and powerful performance by this two exquisite musicians called "Tom Doherty's"
An absolute pleasure to listen to.
its as if the tunes have taken absolute possession of the musicians! gods all..!
Tender power of playing transends us to moments of being and listening, just that and that is moving. Thanks Martin
I've been extremely privileged to see this infamous man and Patrick in our tiny village hall on Dartmoor, TWICE !!! I'm humbled

I wish I could like 1000 times
dallas gable can't wait to listen 1000 times more
Agreed. One Like just doesn't do it for this kind of playing.
They sure make it look easy, don't they? Martin and John, two of my favorites, finally working together.
Lovely playing from Martin as always. Simply Exquisite
Simply magical!
Martin...that's just ridiculous playing! Wow.
the flute player is really enjoying the subleties of Martin's playing
The fluteplayer's name is Kevin Crawford and he's a wonderful musician too
One of the best examples of fiddle playing. Superb!
Wonderful sound of music
How to impress the hottest flute player around!!...
AMAZING!!! 😍😍😍

incredible...how does one dare to play so long notes on open strings, no vibrato, and so expressive?
bow technique? hehe

Sorry, what are these tunes called? Anybody know?
+Bjorn Vik reels
Id like to know the first one?
A bit late but Wheels of the world / Brendan McMahon’s / Tom Doherty’s 🙂
Don’t know the slow air though
That poor man with the flute
that's no poor man..that's KEVIN CRAWFORD.
levi record the best seat in the house
What is the function of the flute player ? . B
There's a hole in the bucket, Dear Plastic, Dear Plastic
All joking aside. They are having a session and the flute player will be involved. I think its Kevin Crawford

Extraordinary fiddle playing. Have to say that the guitar backing sounded out of place to my ears.

Me too not in keeping
Can I change my mind ...yes it works! Oblique harmonies
John Doyle can do what he likes
