They are two of Sean Ryan's jigs. They are called "The Castle" and "The Nightingale".

I have seen Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill three times. Twice in house parties with the two of them not five feet away from me. The Kiwis arent asleep. Listenting to these two play is like going to church or something. You look around you and everyone has their eyes closed and are being transported someplace else. Brilliant doesn't even begin to cover it. Slainte'

Two of my fave jigs, and well played too. Cahill's guitar work matches perfectly. Not enough is said about Dennis' playing, IMO.
