In the audio piece recorded from our Rambling House series at Dinny White Harra McLaughlin's Dinny tells Seoirse about the origins of the first proper Irish trad music session in Ireland and yes, it was none other than at Huidí Beags pub in 1970's Gweedore - and two weeks was the duration of that first session no less!

Another one of Dinny's fine compositions.

Dinny tells us just how many people lived in the two rooms of his house at one stage. 

Dinny tells us about a Derry legend, Johnny Cuthems, on his scrapes with the law!

Dinny recalls some great stories about his mentor, the deadpan Pat Mulhern.

Name of piece to be ascertained.

Not only is Dinny a raconteur, but he is wise artist with some good advice on how to get places.

A great tune by Dinny with a tale about its name later on.
