Music of Ireland -- Welcome to America is the second installment of a two-part series celebrating 50 years of contemporary Irish music and its impact on America. Part Two features intriguing interviews, exclusive performances and archival clips of some of today's biggest acts in the world including: U2, The Cranberries, Celtic Woman, Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance, The Corrs, Sinéad O'Connor and many others.
Saw this 2nd part recently on my PBS affiliate and enjoyed it immensely. I know this second part focuses more on modern artists from the 1980's onward but there is no mention of Thin Lizzy. Phil Lynott and Gary Moore and the other members were great musicians. Any omission of their contributions is a glaring oversight. They were hugely influential in hard rock circles.
