Do they have greek bouzouki?
dim1377 10 months ago
@dim1377 ..yes it is a Greek one there, bowl back, bear in mind this was in 1983 so the flat back "Irish" Zouk was not readilly available.It would have been strung and tuned very differently though, either GDAD or , as I play , same as a Mandolin..GDAE.

It's quite an achievement that such expressive, soaring, magical music can be played without so much as a hint of a smile! Love the tunes!

A mighty set. I love this band. What a great sound they had. Jacky Daly is brilliant.

This is the "grown-people stuff" when it comes to Irish music. De Dannan's arrangements largely consisted of them just playing the tunes - they had the chops to do that shit straight without any other gimmicky shit and still kick ass!
De Dannan = head and shoulders above all the others!

Yep, Neachtains still looks the same, thank god it wasn't turned into a lap dancing club like Taylors.

@Sumptayum Just imagine though scantily clad women lap dancing to these reels. That would be heaven, it'd get more people turning up at sessions too.
