14) As it was in Toureendarby
Timmy O'Connor

Born around 1935, Sliabh Luachra box player Timmy recorded this album in his mid-70s.

Timmy grew up playing in crossroads dances in the country, and this album was him recollecting the way the auld fellows played when he was young.

A very rare glimpse of #IrishTrad from the past. It's interesting to note that he's playing much more simply than today, almost more like a fiddle.
