		MICHAEL COLEMAN was born in the townland of Knockgraine, Killavil, Co. Sligo on 31st January, 1891.

	Michael Coleman
		Coleman’s impact resounded far from the small south Sligo farm on which he was born in 1891.
		One such musician was Donegal’s Hugh Gillespie (1906-1986), who came under the Coleman spell in New York and learned his Sligo fiddling style; while he remained a wonderful fiddler in his own right, his own traditional Donegal style became changed (some might say tainted, though Gillespie probably didn’t think this was a problem).
		Coleman quickly picked himself and his fiddle back up and walked out, but he never returned the $5 playing fee, either. By the end of his life in 1945, Coleman had recorded 80 commercially made sides, plus a host of miscellaneous recordings.

	Michael Gorman
		Michael, naturally shy, was usually well-mannered, friendly and accommodating with fellow musicians, acknowledging their positive values and remembering their favourite tunes to play when they joined his company.
		Michael appears in a variety of guises: as solo fiddler; in tandem with Margaret Barry; or with a variety of other musicians (including Tommy Maguire, Jimmy Power, Willie Clancy and Mick Flynn).
		Rhythm is ever the guiding factor, but Michael's range of ornamentation (sparkling triplets and a characteristic flick at the end of phrases) invested his music with both sparkle and grace.

		However, as Daly and Hernon note, since most of the musicians were recorded in their own homes, this enhances their music’s sense of relaxation.
		However, both Coleman and Morrison were responding to the needs of both record labels and dance halls.
		Neither Coleman nor Morrison is present on The Living Tradition, but the third member of that triumvirate, Paddy Killoran, does appear and is one of its many hidden gems, thanks in part to Kevin Henry.

		This landmark album helped to revive interest in Coleman's music and especially his settings of tunes, and the tight playing on it had no less an impact.
		An ongoing 'community of music' was mentioned in the priest's sermon, and evidence of that came during the Mass from the playing of Conway, Mangan, Dolan, Tony DeMarco, Mike Rafferty, Cleek Schrey, John Daly, Maeve Flanagan, Erin Loughran, Pat Keogh, Martin Reilly, Gabe Donahue, and Colin Lindsay.

	The Coleman Archive Volume 1
		Prior releases have consisted of new recordings, such as 1999's estimable The Mountain Road, which featured a large number of contemporary musicians, including the Connemara-born accordionist, P J Hernon, who has long been based in Sligo, and the flute-player, Gregory Daly, who lives in the county's south.
		Rather, the compilers have chosen to offer as much instrumental variety as possible, though remarking reasonably that the fiddle was the key instrument of choice in the area, though being replaced latterly by the flute.
		Intriguingly, the accordionist (Elizabeth Bolger) is one of only two women featured - the compilers recognize the paucity of recordings of women musicians held by the archive - while the banjo player happens to be Larry Reddigan, much better known for his fiddling.

	Willy Clancy on Traditional Irish Music
		Vesey, a student of Michael Gorman's, and a follower of Michael Coleman and Paddy Killoran, plays beautifully in that great old West Ireland style still found in parts of Clare and Sligo, and even in America, (by such greats as Joe Murtagh), at least where it has not been "face-lifted" by doubtless well-meaning "improvers".
		He grew up among some of the finest traditional musicians in Ireland, at a time when the music was still part of the way of life.
		John was also a strong advocate of proper comportment for musicians, expecting them to always be a credit to the people we represent as traditional players.
