Re: Recommend Some Trad. Scottish/Irish/Welsh/English Tune CDs.
For Welsh tunes, you can look online for music by the group Ar Log. They've been around for a while, so many of their original releases are strictly vinyl LPs, but they have later releases and compilations that can be found as CDs, plus various YouTube videos. Schott World Music has released a very fine book of Welsh Fiddle Tunes edited by Sian Phillips. The accompanying CD has each tune played through on solo fiddle by Sian, each track beginning with her quietly counting off the tune. It is very enjoyable to just sit down and go through the book, playing through various tunes you have not yet met.
