Thanks to TG4's change to Flash video (like YouTube), we can all see it now!

Thank you for the links. In the second video I believe the "young " concertina player is Geroid O hAllhmurain.

In two watchings I did not see Noel Hill.

Great video, and I am of the same opinion regarding the concertina player. I've heard Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin play the same tune (featured on concertina in this video) at his Friday Harbor classes, seems I recall he said was called "Bruach na Carraige Báine," or "The Brink of the White Rock." It's my understanding that "A Stor Mo Chroi" (Treasure of my heart) is based on this tune.

Must have been the beard that threw me - I will make enquiries!
