    The Foxhunters is a commonly played slip jig amongst Irish session musicians. Played by Joe Nobiling on a mid 1930s Gibson mandolin.

    Very nice Joe! The band that I play in, plays this in G, rather than D, and we go into Kid on the Mountain afterwards.... it's one of our favorite medleys!

    Thanks for another great mandolin and guitar contribution! It's such a good combination. And I'm very impressed with your dexterity on this tricky tune.

    A tune that's deep in the heart of every Fairport Convention fan, as the third tune in the groundbreaking Liege & Lief medley! I've never managed to get it under my fingers, so Mike's wonderful duet may give me the kick I need.

    Really nice Mike - this is going to take some work to get the timing down on this piece - don't think I ever tried 9/8 time before. It's like the one you posted yesterday. Really like them - great job. Thanks

    The guitarist is my lovely wife, Korah. ... I love Fairport Convention and Richard Thompson, jointly and severally. This tune was a favorite at the Irish trad session we used to have in town.

    Great playing you guys, this is a lovely tune. Thanks.

    Suddenly thought, ’wait a minute, I’m sure I posted this too.’
    Here it is, a very stately version, sorry I doubled the tune thread: https://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/group.php?discussionid=6589&do=discuss
