Catharsis...a great modern tune...check out Natalie MacMaster's album, No Boundaries, for a rockin' version of it.
Tam Lin...my absolute favourite tune, hands down. Another one that rocks, especially if you bring out the rising line in the beginning, and start soft and crescendo through to the B section. So far the best recording I've heard of it is by Catriona MacDonald...my ex's version is better, IMO, but not on an album or anything...yet.
Julia Delaney...another one of my favourites...there's a great recording on the Ring Sessions CD with James Kelly and Zan MacLeod.
The Drunken Sailor...my favourite hornpipe (this from someone who really does NOT like hornpipes). It's on Liz Carroll's album, Lost in the Loop, which I am currently missing and getting frustrated with...no idea where it could have disappeared to ( ... )
