Phil and Aly have been playing together for nearly twenty years now. Tracks from several albums, as well as some previously unreleased material, make up a great collection from this ever popular fiddle and accordion duo.

Here’s a distillation of their favourites, including two additional newly recorded tracks.

Martin O’Connor, Violet Tulloch and Peerie Willie Johnson guest on some tracks.
