Cló Iar-Chonnachta CICD 156, 2004. From the CD booklet: "The recordings on this album came from cassette tapes and reel-to-reel and were donated by Kevin's friends and acquaintances. They were recorded, mostly in San Francisco and Chicago, using home recording equipment [. . .]." No dates are provided, other than for tracks 5 and 11, so I have dated the remaining tracks as being recorded no later than Dec. 1978, which was when Kevin Keegan died. I would gladly incorporate more accurate dates if anyone could send me more accurate dates (and locations and musicians) for each (or even any one) track. Liner notes by Joe Burke. Not indexed here: tracks 1, 7, 14, and 20 (all spoken material), and track 11 (Adeste Fideles).

Every Irish tune on this album was identified by carefully comparing this recorded performance with all other tunes in the Irish Traditional Music Tune Index—by comparing musically, disregarding tune titles.
