@ABitRusty -

Probably not exactly what you are looking for, but these 2 playlists seemed better than others & maybe worth a listen! 

LP Bodhran Practice Tracks - Reel Rhythm Playlist

Bodhran Metronome - REEL Rhythm Playlist

@ABitRusty -

Isn't this some of the 'lilt', 'groove', we've been talking about? 

I love Paddy Canny's style of playing! 😊

Think he's a master of bow pressure & speed, like performing ballet moves, or a leaf tossed about in the air, then runs a bit forward - such a wonderful feeling of natural momentum.   Everything I listen to of his pulls me in for the ride of it. 

Paddy Canny's version of Garret Barry's - sounds like C lydian.  He modulates the beginning of the 1st phrase a few times, but always returns it back to C - VERY clever! 

Charles Monad settled on the other side of County Clare, in Doolin - like his relaxed style too, even though he plays concertina he always provides good notation, worth looking at.  Charles has Garret Barry's Jig notated in Dmix. 

Both of these sound much different than versions at The Session (in Gmaj, & not so sure some of those are even right, btw).  I realize C lydian, D mixolidian, & G major, all use the same notes (F#) but I think there are differences in 'feel' by using other modes than ionian (major) or aeolian (minor). 

Maybe not intentional on Paddy Canny's part, but I've heard Beato describe Lydian as 'Celestrial' - and I think  between Paddy's choice of modes and playing style, make Garret Barry's sound that way! 

Thanks for bringing this tune up!  🤗
