78rpm Disc: Michael Grogan: The Cliff/Harvest Home (hornpipes)
Here are a couple hornpipes from accordion player Michael Grogan, recorded c.1938 in Dublin for the Regal Zonophone label (IZ 947). Ted McGraw points out that Grogan, from Mullingar in Co. Westmeath, was one of the few B/C players of the time.
The Cliff hornpipe is known by a number of other names (Higgins', The Ruby, and The Standard to name a few). It was recorded by John J. Kimmel in 1909 and Michael Coleman in 1921.
From the Ted McGraw Collection, McGraw 78 03-163.
