about

This rendition of The Green Fields of America is informed largely by a version recorded by the legendary piper Willie Clancy (1918-1973) on the album The Pipering of Willie Clancy (Claddagh Records, 1980), and also by the many times I have heard Donegal fiddler player Danny Meehan sing the song Pretty Molly Brannigan, which is sung to the same air.
The second tune, My Love is in America, owes a stylistic debt to the revolutionary Dublin fiddler Tommie Potts (1912-1988), who recorded the tune on his lone commercial album, The Liffey Banks (Claddagh Records, 1972) .
