GB: You forgot Rosey Grier's "My Wild Irish Rose" and Barry White's "Rocky Road to Dublin".
Here's something for the rest of you: If you get the chance check out The Hooligans Webpage. These guys are THE BEST Irish band working the Philly Area.

My favorite Celtic musician is, by far, Loreena McKennit, followed closely by Enya. I just LOVE "The Highwayman". I loved the poem in high school, and I love the way she set it to music. I also really liked Enya's work in LOTR.

barrdas, Alison Krauss is one of my favorite female singers. I think she has such a beautiful voice. She is going to be at our state fair in August and I really want to go see her. This will be her second apperance there and I was fortunate enough to see her the first time.
RavenWing, Did you see the movie O'Brother? I think George Clooney is great in anything he plays in! I wonder how he would look in a kilt?
I work the graveyard shift so I was awake all night last night. I had the opportunity to watch a first season episode of SNL with Gilda, Jane, Lorainne, Dan, John, Garret, and the gang - musical guest was the Chieftains! I did not remember them being on the show, but it sure was fun watching them perform a couple of numbers - they were as great back then as they are today!

May the Irish hills caress you. May her lakes and rivers bless you. May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you.

Let me guess...
At one point during the "Weekend Update", Dan said "Jane, you ignorant slut."

Yup, and they were doing political humor stuff about Jimmy Carter!

She is effortless in her vocals. WOW! I have seen her twice. Once for the last album she did ( New Favorite) and then the Down from the Mountain tour. That was a treat!

Hi! I've been lurking, but had to add my $.02 on this topic -- Dougie Maclean is, at least in my opinion, one of the best singer/songwriters to come out of Scotland ever. I love his music and will travel hundreds of miles to get to a concert!
Profpinky (old listener, new forum member)
I agree Dougie is a very good writer, I just wish sometimes he would lay off the keyboards a bit. There are so many layers of keyboards in some of his songs. Not a bad thing.....
cheers
