This fascinating history charts the struggles and triumphs of Irish folk, trad, and blues musicians before the Irish music industry, and acts like U2, existed. Forgotten heroes and latter-day legends intertwine with honorary visitors who took a bit of Ireland with them, like Bob Dylan and Arlo Guthrie. The main focus of the book, however, is on the influence of homegrown pioneers, from Sweeney's Men in the 1960s to Horslips, De Danann, Anne Briggs, Rory Gallagher, and current groundbreakers like Martin Hayes. Anyone who owns even one Irish record will appreciate this book; anyone who owns a lot of Irish records will no doubt treasure it.
A browse in any music store reveals extensive collections of Irish folk, trad and blues. However, in the past great pioneers of the genre lived when the recording industry showed scant interest in the scene. This fascinating history reveals the frustrations and triumphs of trailblazers before acts like U2 existed. The main thrust of the book concerns the influence of homegrown pioneers, from Sweeney''s Men to De Dannan and Martin Hayes.
