Reels: The Bag of Oysters / The Old Grey Gander / The Scolding Wife

Eliot Grasso (uilleann pipes) & Jim Eagan (fiddle) perform at the Creative Alliance in Baltimore, Maryland (April 2018)

Here's a set of three reels: The Bag of Oysters / The Old Grey Gander / The Scolding Wife

Jim learned The Bag of Oysters and The Old Grey Gander from fiddler Brendan Mulvihill as a pairing in the late 1990s or early 2000s. We've been playing these two together for many years. The third tune is a reel from Donegal that Eliot learned from uilleann piper Seán Óg Potts during Scoil Acla on Achill Island (County Mayo) in the late 90s.
