As the very happy owner of a McNally, it's nice to see that Muireann Bradley (came to prominence on the Hootenanny) is getting one

Seeing a young person play ragtime gives me hope for the future.

they said that about me in 1980  ...................and that's where the future stayed

Her record is jaw droppingly good. Shes a cage fighter too. Interesting differing hobbies

Overall I'm not crazy about the record but her playing is phenomenal. She seems to have a lot of nice modern vintage style guitars

its a traditional tune,  Mississippi John Hurt first recorded in in 1928,  not sure about Rev Gary Davies................  they're both accepted as being the writers of the newer version IIRC

That tune sounds like the Rab C Nesbit theme.
