    Man

    I've only recently been introduced to the Man Band..... although they have been around for decades. I really like the long jam sessions they seem to be notorious for.

    I just wondered if any of you have any information about them or points of interest to share?

  1. Sorry about that.....

    I was asked privately for some recommendations by someone.... I cannot possibly divulge who...as it may completely shatter his street cred !!

    Diddly dee diddly dee diddly dee is what you sing cos there's no words :P

    * Waits for the broken guitar string lashing again *

  2. If you want Irish traditional in particular you could try some

    Altan

    De Dannan

    Matt Molloy

    Paddy Glakin

    Danu

    For some more contemporary/fusion type stuff

    Michael McGoldrick

    Davy Spillane

    Sharon Shannon

  3. great album..... it set a lot of standards for things to come but was well ahead of its time in what was achieved technically....

    and it's still selling :)

    It also can be used as a synch soundtrack for the movie the Wizard of Oz..... surreal stuff and some uncanny co-incidences between lyrics and movie....

  4. Surely the whole illegal thing about downloading music from anywhere is the breach of copyright.... so if those sites are using the money collected to pay for copyright then it should be legal?? The record industry seem to be throwing their toys out of the pram because they've lost the monopoly on the market.... they'd do much better to spend their money on rethinking how the industry works and investing in new marketing plans instead of constipating progress by throwing a tantrum.
