N: “Although I had heard about him for years, I first met Al Purcell of Dublin
N: and Detroit at the 1998 Chicago fleadh. He's the kind of guy you meet the
N: first time and think you've known all your life. This tune is dedicated to
N: Al and the other illustrious pipers in his family. (Just now heard that
N: Al has passed away - ar dheis DŽ go raibh a h-anam.)”
