We were going to say 'another old master' but he still looks quite sprightly in the pics.
And he's nor just 'another' either, he's one of the originals but he's certainly a 'master' - so one out of three ain't bad.
Jaunty playing too and near 50 years from his first recordings.
Jigs, reels and the rest make for a welcome return to recording from the boy & his box & the family helping out.
