I haven’t done Tuneswap Tuesday for a while… anyone got some good folk for me? Here’s Clive Williams playing a Northumbrian pipe tune on a tiny melodeon: Peacock Followed the Hen

This recording from Blowzabella’s early days of the well known “Bear Dance” is listed as “Bear Dance No. 3” - so is it the/a third recording of it, or are there two other Bear Dances that didn’t become popular? Anyone know?

Folks, if you need something to listen to this #TuneswapTuesday you have got to check out Naragonia’s new album.

I hadn’t listened to any Jack Armstrong for ages until last night - I love the simplicity of his playing. Here he is with Proudlock’s Hornpipe, which this recording gives a forename to too (which I had forgotten) -
Do you have any good folk music to share this #TuneswapTuesday?

Brought on my my recent reading, I wanted to remind y’all that Dave Shepherd’s “Rose of Raby” is an excellent tune and sounds lovely on the smallpipes. I’ve even played it on my own hummelchen recently!
Anyone else have a folk tune to share this #TuneswapTuesday ?

Happy #TuneswapTuesday all those who celebrate it.
This is Sandra Kerr and John Faulkner singing Peggy Seeger’s “Song of Choice”, for obvious reasons.
I've not really played in about a week as my shoulder hasn't been right after some enthusiastic one-row playing... so here's someone a bit more competent playing one without hurting themselves!
Scan Tester's no.1 played by Peter Rogan - and doesn't a 4 stop in G sound glorious?!

I may have shared this for #TuneswapTuesday before but I'm not apologising.
Given mention of La Bottine Souriante in this month’s Chatterbox, I’ve finally been getting around to learning Le Reel Des Soucoupes Volantes on the one-row… here they are playing it as my share for the first #TuneswapTuesday of 2025

A very late entry for #TuneswapTuesday from the wonderful CB-C.

Here’s a slightly old but quite fun rendition of JK’s “Jump at the Sun” and Philippe Plard’s “Zelda” to take the chill off the weather this #TuneswapTuesday

I went to Morrisons to get some bananas this morning and so was inspired to post this for #TuneswapTuesday

The first #TuneswapTuesday in #Advent? Here’s @squeezyjohn playing his #Hohner Lucia in the December 3rd video of his #SqueezeboxAdventCalendar

I failed to do #TuneswapTuesday yesterday, but I have a good excuse: work overran and then I had to jump straight in the car to pick friends up and go to see these lovelies… here’s #Bellowhead’s Sloe Gin from 2007 - I was working behind the main bar at the festival, so could hear brilliantly and just about see the stage, and not many people buy drinks during really good acts.

As it is the 109th anniversary of Joe Hills’ death, I thought I’d share @nicheinterests playing the #JoeHill song The Preacher And The Slave for #TuneswapTuesday this week

Distract yourself from American politics by listening to #NorthumbrianSmallpipes - here’s Andrew Lawrenson playing Madame Bonaparte as my share for #TuneswapTuesday, now that I actually know what day of the week it is: https://youtu.be/VSwyZv8xgS0
I keep getting confused about what day of the week it is. I am therefore sharing Alistair Anderson playing Keelman o’er the Land although it is neither #TuneswapTuesday nor #ThreeTwoThursday

A bit late to #TuneswapTuesday today, here’s Mel Biggs with Old Molly Oxford

As the first test train ran from Oxford to Bletchley High Level on #EWR yesterday it only seems appropriate to share The High Level Hornpipe by James Hill, played by Will Allen this #TuneswapTuesday

Andy Cutting and Grégory Jolivet playing “The Rose of Raby” -

Interesting time at #CIHT Climates workshop today. Lots of food for thought on greening transport. More on that when I’ve done some digesting of the future gazing, if I can articulate it.
Anyway, it is #TuneswapTuesday, and my bus is running horribly late… here’s Put The Road in Order performed by #BrassMonkey

Some pipe and taboring for #TuneswapTuesday this week.
Can’t find the track of The Kathryn Tickell Band playing “The Desparation” I wanted to share, but in looking for it found this video of a young Kathryn Tickell playing a couple of Billy Pigg tunes that will more than do for #TuneswapTuesday
Gypsy’s Lullably is one of my favourite tunes to play & following it with Billy Pigg’s Hornpipe is a really nice change of pace

The Cock and Bull Band’s original version of “Lunch in the Pub” is a bit twiddlier than is often played in sessions, and the @RedCuthbert dance only fits the simpler version, but it’s a fun tune! We might even play it in the pub tonight, you never know. Got anything to swop? #TuneswapTuesday
Good old Lester Bailey playing Albert Farmer’s Bonfire Tune on a one row four stop - classic for #TuneswapTuesday
I do love the sound and simplicity of the HA114 - I should play mine more. Not having to make decisions about cross rowing or what chords to play is a bonus!

Akshully it's only "thousands or more" if it's from the "Although I'm not rich" region of the song. Otherwise it's just "sparkling eyes" #TuneswapTuesday

I love Chris Droney's style of playing #TuneswapTuesday

I've been playing this over and over.

Have we had anything from Mrs O'Dwyer for #TuneswapTuesday before? If not, it's well overdue.

This 1975 album pretty much charted the course for the next 50 years of Irish traditional music. To this day, many of the tunes are often played in the same order as they appear on the album.
All of the musicians in this Bothy Band lineup went on to be influential solo musicians and members of numerous other groups.
I normally find that busy bodhran playing distracts from the melody and drags a tune down. This video is a lovely exception.
I'm hoping @OccasionalDucks might approve of this Blowzabella tune for #TuneswapTuesday
