Fiddle solo, Kathleen Brennan - piano, Decca 12076. Patrick Clancy was a Tipperary fiddler who made a few 78s in the late 1910s, and is possibly being honored here. Tom Ennis's piping recording of the Trip to the Cottage is also included on this site. Coleman sometimes utterly flew through jigs, but the tempo here is lively but not berserk, and he gets in some nice variations in ornaments. Unfortunately Brennan continues to play one of the five piano chords she seemed to know all through the set, ignoring the key change to G in the Trip.
