Irish Flute Tunes

I came across this site by accident. I was looking for the notation of Crowley's reel and found this great site. Lots of Flute tunes to be found here. Michael plays them on his flute, once slow and then faster. Great work, if you don't have a flute player just capture his playing and accompany him. Good for trying different backings. Sounds better than playing to midi flutes on my sequencer.
