The Reel of Rio
January 8th, 2008 at 6:43 pm (traditional irish flute, irish flute)
I was asked to record this which is a good thing as otherwise my memory wouldn’t have stumbled upon it. Now my mental recall has been provoked, I hope this is the same Reel of Rio that got lost in it years ago.
I don’t know what the “Rio” in question is. Maybe its just that the name sounds better that “The Reel of Lagan”.

Hi Michael - I’d heard that it’s a Sean Ryan tune and the Rio is Ryo after the man himself.

Thanks for that information. That’s one thing I can strike off my list of puzzles.
