Jim McGrath and the Reprobates: Whiskey Johnny
Here's some MP3 music you can download or listen to. Right-click the song title, and "Save target as," or click the streaming link to stream with the embedded Windows Media Player. The download files are larger (128 kbps), but better quality, than the streaming files (64 kbps). If you have a high-speed connection, you can probably just go on and left-click the title—but you knew that already.
Whiskey Johnny and Fishers' Hornpipe medley (2.7 MB). Work hard, then dance. Sounds like a plan.
Jim McGrath, lead vocals and guitar; Fud Benson, fiddle; Walter McDonough, pennywhistle; Jim Bennett, banjo. Everybody sings on the choruses.

The Rights of Man hornpipe (2.5 MB). Fud Benson, fiddle; Walter McDonough, mandolin; Jim Bennett, guitar; Jim McGrath, bodhran. So many groups have swiped our arrangement of this that I thought I'd put it up here for study purposes. Snarky email to mrbennett at maloneandhutch dot com.
