Playing a tin whistle like that, at his age, after a fast dance, with 100% breath control, is simply amazing!

[@ScratchyBaws]

He was only 20yrs old here, maybe a tough paper-round. 🤣

Micho was a teetotaller...The old pioneer pin was a very big hit with the ladies in my day...

Вот это по настоящему красиво и интересно, это нужно сохранять и приумножать. Большие молодцы!

[@tylerdelgregg9398]

Man, he caught his breath nicely. Well done!

1982. Micho waiting outside the fish and chip shop in Miltown Malbay. After hearing a young learner do what she could playing The Rakes of Mallow, Micho played it with all the modest genius at his disposal.

[@johnmaher7860]

what is the name of the tune he played on the whistle?

[@alvarodumain5057]

I wish my neighbors were as appreciative as that crowd... to be fair, I don't play that well haha

A classic video clip from a Fleadh Cheoil in Ennis 1978 The full video worth checking out it's called The Green Linnet...

[@fiddlejohn9305]

Not sure about that date at Ennis. The Fleadh Cheoil in ‘78 was held in Listowel, Co. Kerry and indeed Miko Russell was there, I have the photos, programme schedule and t-shirt to prove it, but maybe everyone was pulling a trick on me!😊 Perhaps I consumed a bad pint and hallucinated it all!
