The book is also published more recently under the name Ryan's Mammoth Collection. I recorded these last year and just never got around to editing the rather long video. But here it is. Some of these tunes are pretty much American-only, and some are Scottish, even English, and not so much Irish in style. Most are played in Ireland in some form, but the style I give them here is definitely Irish. These are mostly tunes I haven't heard from elsewhere so you can hear what is pretty my own style as opposed to my "takes" on the styles of other people.
