Dave Hackett of Keeping Track interviewed Paul McDermott back in April 2023. Paul began his media career here on Cork Campus Radio. Paul McDermott has been described as a cultural historian documenting Cork's musical heritage. If you're a regular listener to Cork Campus Radio, you will have heard his documentaries on Microdisney, Stump, Andrew Weatherall, and Finbar Donnelly from Five Go Down To The Sea & Nun Attax. More recent offerings such as his documentary on the Sultans of Ping, which was released as the band celebrated 30 years of Casual Sex In The Cineplex, was aired on RTE's 2XM and his feature on the music of Sliabh Luachra, which aired on RTE's Lyric FM, was described by the Irish Times as 'an evocative reminder of the magical role music can play in our lives'. When not documenting Cork's musical heritage, he teaches radio production, journalism studies and media analysis in Rathmines College, he broadcasts Songs To Learn & Sing on Dublin City FM, and he also produces the NO.1 podcast, To Here Knows When - Great Irish Albums Revisited.

My guest today is harpist Eileen Gannon. I first met Eileen at the University of Limerick's Irish World Academy of Music and Dance. We were both studying for our Masters in Ethnomusicology. And I want to thank Eileen for encouraging me on my harp journey. Eileen grew up in St. Louis Missouri where her parents Helen and P.J. Gannon, who are from Ireland, wanted to make sure their children learned how to play and dance in the Irish tradition. St. Louis Irish Arts was created with the motto, “From generation to generation”. Established in the 1970s it has become a center of learning Irish music and dance attracting some of the finest Irish traditional musicians in the world to teach. Eileen and her family are passionate about teaching Irish music and dance to the next generation. Eileen is the head of music education at SLIA and is a well respected harpist in the tradition. Make sure to pick up a copy of Eileen's newest solo harp album from 2017, “The Glory Days are Over”.Eileen's newest album with fiddler Robert Ryan is, “Down the Rocky Road”. This album primarily draws inspiration from Petrie's Complete Irish Music, a publication featuring over 1500 tunes collected in Ireland between 1850 and 1860, and from the music of the Sliabh Luachra region in Ireland. On this album Eileen wanted to let the harp sing. She would find the harp resonating with the tunes making the overtones and harmonics of the harp shine.We also discuss accompanying other instruments with the harp and how to play harp in a Traditional Irish Session.

In Portland, Oregon, Kevin Burke made me (Dom) a cup of tea and we sat in his living room for two hours on a sunny, Friday afternoon, and talked. It was delightful. What did we talk about? Being a boy in post war London; learning the fiddle from a lady called Ms. Kristofferson; bumping into Joe Burke at JFK after trying and failing to get Arlo Guthrie's phone number from Directory Enquiries, and so much more. Including Michael Coleman. ‘That chap,' said Ms. Kristofferson, ‘he really finds the soul of his instrument.' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79ZJVV1CGz4 Some of the other players Kevin mentions... ‘Probably the most shocking, the most uplifting and inspiring – like in the old fashioned sense of the word, awesome – was a guy called Brendan McGlinchey. I was completely awestruck when he sat down and started playing.' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7rd-I25-eQ Liam O'Hara from Sligo. Tommy and Ted McGowan and Tommy and Eddie Corcoran from Gortin. And most of the Liverpool Ceili Band. And if you want to get a really good feel for the vibe of that time in London when Kevin was growing up, get your hands on this collection. You'll hear many of the musicians Kevin mentions, including Lucy Farr and Eddie Corcoran: https://www.propermusic.com/shop/TopicRecords/view/226749-various-artists-it-was-great-altogether-the-continuing-tradition-of-irish-music-in-london-3cd And Joe Burke: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erbFXptMpD4 This version of Paddy Tunney singing The lowlands of Holland is, as we discussed, mind blowingly beautiful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KjyRVd926s Kevin played the following tunes: 1 Maudabawn Chapel, written by Ed Reavy, after whom there's now an annual festival. Check it out here: https://www.facebook.com/EdReavyTradFest/ 2 The Sailor on the Rock. ‘It's the first tune I learned just from hearing at a session. A fella called Con Curtin and and fella called Edmund Murphy played it one night. And I went home and I found I could play it, just from hearing them play it. And I was thrilled, that's the first time that ever happened to me.‘ You can find out more about Con Curtin and the ‘Sliabh Luachra' style of playing here: http://concurtin.com/ 3 Morrison's Jig, which Kevin has just re-recorded with John Carty for his new album ‘Sligo Made' 4 Paris Nights, by Cal Scott 5 London Town, written by Kevin Burke and Cal Scott and 6 Lucy's Fling, from the playing of Lucy Farr As will happen, I was hoking about looking for clips of the McGowan brothers when I came across this, featuring Seamus Tansey and James Murray.

Pádraig Ó Caoimh is regarded as one of the most influential fiddle players of all time and the greatest in the Sliabh Luachra style. Born in 1887 in Gleantán, he was the eldest of 8 children from a musical family. A music master, he passed his skills to many pupils and his influence on traditional music can be heard everywhere today. (1980)
