Hi folks; here we are again!
This month's selection:
Eleanor Plunkett? An O'Carolan tune, here played (and posted just recently) by Roland Carson,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nad0ZqFV0E0 . Oh, and there's this video too which autoplayed when I played Roland's:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfHqoJict3o - that's just lovely, isn't it?
Kennington Jig - Thanks Pete, for this suggestion; written by John Dipper - The Kennington Jig, here as played by (a very young) Jake Middleton
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsw5vWkD1w0 ; Jake lives just up the road from me these days, and is making concertinas for a living - good luck to him. Here's his website, if you're interested...

Country Gardens - we've really not done this yet? Well...courtesy of Lester, here we are:

The Attingham Waltz ... and finally, a tune by one of my favourite composers/players; Helena Torpy, who has a wonderful duo going with Steve Turner if you can seek them out. Here's our own McGrooger playing a lovely version on a 2 row 8 bass box:
