PPI Specialist Music Broadcaster of the Year 2015//The Stephen McCauley Show//Music, books, film, cycling. Views expressed here are my own, not the BBCs.
What a special show by @StephenMainline tonight. Martin Hayes, in my humble opinion, is the best fiddle player to come ever out of Ireland (well maybe equal with Cathal Hayden). His version of ‘The Sailors Bonnet’ - played like an air initially into reel time 👌Genius at work.
