 The Second Jimmy McHugh Memorial Concert
The fiddler, Jimmy McHugh, was born in 1930 in the town of Omagh, Co Tyrone, but was raised in the distinctly different environment of the townland of Ballykerrigan, near Glenfinn, Co Donegal.
The reason is simple, for, in 1946, Jimmy and some of his family moved to Glasgow, a city to which so many of the county's people migrated that it is sometimes known as the 'capital' of Donegal.
Jimmy was never professionally recorded, but his playing of Pigeon on the Gate (often associated with another Donegal fiddler, Neillidh Boyle) is the closing track on this otherwise live recording at the Mitchell Theatre, Glasgow, of the second festival held in his memory in January, 2001.

Let's Get Lost is a bit of a letdown when placed next to Blanchard's 2000 effort, Wandering Moon, which featured a blistering sextet playing original music.
This album is a tribute to songwriter Jimmy McHugh, a pillar of Broadway and Hollywood throughout much of the first half of the 20th century.
Blanchard takes extensive liberties with McHugh's songs and enlists four very well-known female vocalists to help him pull it off: Diana Krall, Jane Monheit, Dianne Reeves, and Cassandra Wilson.
