Released on February 24th 2012 and available through www.horslips.ie and all good retailers is the final album in the remastered digipak CD series of the original 12 HORSLIPS albums, spanning 1972-1980. HAPPY TO MEET, SORRY TO PART (1972), Horslips' début LP, was notable not only for bringing the band's highly original fusion of traditional folk, rock and blues to the mainstream market, but also for its ambitious and expensively manufactured concertina-shaped package, designed by mandolin, fiddle & concertina player, Charles O'Connor.
From a creative and technical perspective, the new digipak reissue was also a challenging project, hence the delayed release. Now the faithfully remastered back catalogue is complete, and this video demonstrates the intricate beauty of its final addition.
Music: "The Musical Priest" from Happy To Meet, Sorry To Part"
