Irish Traditional Music

(June 2000) 25 tracks including The Mountain Lark * The Crooked Road to Dublin * The Maid in the Meadow * The Castlebar Races * Trip to the Cottage * Sean Ryan's Hornpipe (The Homeruler) * The New Found Out Reel.

This is a compilation from three albums released on Topic Records, produced and recorded during the second half of the 1970s. Slowly but surely Topic let these albums slip from their lists and the masters have been back on the Temple shelves for years.

Some of the musicians are unfortunately no longer with us, but their music lives on, their testimony carrying the past into the future.

Sean McAloon (uillean pipes), Seamus Horan (fiddle), Packie Duignan (flute) and John Rea (hammered dulcimer), with Sean Wynne and Robin Morton.
