Have never seen or heard these folks before...love to look at them. It's a bit like watching the St. Patrick's Day parade in NYC--blocks and blocks of my relatives and in-laws. Happy Thursday!
Oh, thank you, M.E., for reminding me of these people! They've been around for a long time, but I'd kind of lost track of them. (I could have sworn they were from Clare, but looks like they're from Limerick. Westerners, anyway.)
Their new album,"Roses," comes out the end of this month (2/27/2012). It's their first one in 11 years. And yes Sherwood, they are from Limerick. You can tell by their looks what part of Ireland they're from?
Here's a link to their recent Rolling Stones visit:
They are phenomenal!!!! Reminds me of Hootenanny and the folk music in the 60s!!!!
ReplyDeleteYou've got it! Rolling Stone says they "mix the bitter with the sweet."

No, not the look. It was my faulty memory that misled me.
