Default Re: Clannad: music for the soul,from Eire.

Hi islandman,

You know how to get me going.

The Chieftans.... I had almost all of their LP's up 'til 'Boil The Breakfast Early' and I liked the early Planxty stuff too. Not too keen on Sinead O'Connor. Just like Martin Carthys' daughter, they seemed to go into something I wasn't able to appreciate. My upbringing music wise, was tradtional folk, both English and Irish and when I was younger I even danced Morris for some years.

Best regards,

Steve

The Cheftains in a great little pub in the County of Mayo.
