I was fortunate enough to them performing in Dublin a long time ago!
-
Ah, The Celts!

I love during the middle tune, as the camera pans around the fort, you can see the older musicians looking on, enjoying it, cos it is good music.

the guitar Micheal O'Domhnaill is playing is worth around 33 grand euro today, and thats if it is from around the late 60s. If its from earlier it could be worth a whole lot more!

@paddy2411 Yes, and it's Wolfe Tones.

Do you know this song :
"some say the devil is dead ... the devil is dead ... the devil is dead ...
some say the devil is dead and burried in Killarney !
more say he rose again ... more say he rose again ... more say he rose again ...
and joined the bristifh army ... !!!"

I am a great fan of the playing of Paddy Keenan. The Uilleann Pipe is really the most difficult instrument to play, more difficult that a simple Bag pipe because of the keys.
I've heard that Irish musicians created this instrument, without a pipe to inflate the bag, because the english invaders refused Irish people to blow in any instrument ...! I don't know if is it true, but this is in the manner of english.

Great set of tunes from great musicians. I had the pleasure of seeing Paddy Keenan recently and he's still an amazing musician and a great guy to talk to :)

Don't feel sad, you haven't missed it. It lives on in the playing of today. This happened to be a time of paradigm shift in Irish music, and it's great to be able see Donal on video playing the bouzouki. Every changes, my father (Seamus) was a man of much prejudice and he wouldn't have this music in the house. But later I met Donal, changed his lightbulb and had a go on his left handed instruments. If I can do that, you can live the next paradigm shift. Just be sure to sit up and notice!
