Sold to me as NM, this copy has many hairlines and the sleeve is a little creased and has
some wear and minor splitting at the top right corner -- Near Mint my ass! This is the French
pressing of the Celtic Folkweave LP from 1974, sonically superior (to my ears) to the Irish

The Dixons - Ingrid Bergman 7" (Purple)
Dr.Millar And The Cute Hoors - Call Me Dirt EP 12" (Treasure Island Discs)
Irish indie guitar quintet, where are they now? Self-released EP.
Dr.Millar And The Cute Hoors - Romance In Ab/Deep Pig 7" (Treasure Island Discs)
Johnny Duhan - Current Affairs LP (Plastic TONS 737, IRL 1984) w/insert, sticker damage vg+/ex
ex Granny's Intentions frontman; I don't know what he did in the '70s, but
this is his solo debut.
Paul Egan - Island of Dreams LP (CBS 83851, UK 1979) signed ex/ex
Irish solo artist, rare progressive/electronics. Side one has four 70s euro prog
tracks, like Eloy, Genesis, with slight fusion-esque tone and quite French sounding.
But the best stuff is on side two, one long (10+ min) track and one shorter one.
Egan was an Irish multi-instrumentist based in Paris and I must admit I'd never
heard of him or his album. He plays guitars, percussion and all sorts of keyboards.
The album features several guest musicians on drums, guitars, flutes, piano and
violin (David Cross of King Crimson). All instrumental. This has got to be a rare
item. Released on CBS thru Midnite Records (Jackie Hayden). Signed on the front
cover by Egan.

Fox - s/t LP (GTO Records GTLP001 (2312 101), UK 1975) ew €5
Not my cup of tea. With Herbie Armstrong ex ThemFreemen - Lark in the Morning LP (Emerald Gem GES 1063, UK 1971) EX/EX €10
Solid ballad folk album, not everyone's cup of tea but a superior example of
the genre and indicative of the folk boom of the 60s. Some dealers have been
known to label this "acid folk" which is ludicrous and frankly dishonest.
There is nothing remotely psychedelic about this record except perhasp the
cover artwork! This is FOLK.
The Freshmen - You've Never Heard Anything Like It 7" (Release RL 975, IRL 1979) taped seams/rw vg+/ex
Rare Irish punk, on one of the KBD-style comps.
Full Circle - Buskin' LP (Michelle Records FCM 2000, IRL undated) VG+/EX-
Rare private pressing. Full Circle were a Dublin club band containing
members of the Greenbeats among others. They were active 1978-85, so
this album must date from this period. All covers and mostly live
recordings. Full autographed. Impossible to find. Seams have tape
damage.
(Thin Lizzy) Funky Junction - A Tribute To Deep Purple LP (Gold Stereo Award MER 373, UK 1973) EX/EX €30
Deep Purple covers "tribute" album recorded by Thin Lizzy (Lynott-Downey-Bell lineup)
for a 'dodgy German businessman'. Note that vocals are not by Lynott, they're by
Bernie White, singer with an unrecorded Dublin band called Elmer Fudd. To avoid
disappointment, I should point out that some tracks are pretty bad(!), but there's
good stuff too and this is an essential purchase for early Lizzy fans IMO.
The Fureys & Davey Arthur - Banshee LP (Dolphin Records DOL 1010, IRL 1978) EX-/EX OFFERS
Rare transitional album cathcing the Fureys betwen their traditional past and
their future pop chart success; mostly though this album is sought after for
it's cover. It LOOKS like an acid-folk masterpiece but the music, while pleasant,
falls short of such accolades. Rare and hard to find.
The Golden Horde - Dig That Crazy Grave EP 7" (Hotwire/Crashed WAY OUT 1, IRL 1984) EX/EX
debut release
Harvest Ministers - You Do My World The World Of Good EP (Crayon Records HM1, IRL 1991) M-/M-

Horslips - Power And The Glory / Sir Festus Burke 7" (DJM Records 2043 013, Germany 1977) woc EX/EX
Nice German only picture sleeve, identical front and back covers so the minor
woc should not be an issue. A nice crisp copy otherwise.

the rare, original Irish release on Donal Lunny's Mulligan label.

Rare original, on small independent northern Ireland label, featuring ex Them members
Light A Big Fire - CIA / Danny 7" (Hotwire HWS 854, IRL 1985) ex/vg
Another rare single on the short-lived Irish label. LABF didn't live up to their
promise, with the band appearing far tamer on record than live. Still a great single.
Unfortunately it has a crack in it (its a really cheap, thin plastic pressing). It
plays OK but is basically a filler copy.
Light A Big Fire - Greenboys / The Boom-Boom Room 7" (Hotwire HWS 859, IRL 1985) ex-/ex

Van Morrison - Blowin' Your Mind LP (Bang Records BLPS-218, USA 1967) co ex/ex
Undated Bang Records stereo issue but it has the blue sky label so its from the
period 1973-1982, after which the label was taken over by CBS.
Van Morrison - Blowin' Your Mind LP (Bang Records BLPS-218, USA 1967) co ex/ex €20
Undated Bang Records stereo issue but it has the blue sky label so its from the

1980s issue.

Moving Hearts - Live Hearts LP (WEA IR 0320, IRL 1983) ex/ex
Moving Hearts - The Storm LP (Mother/Son BUAL 892, IRL 1989) ex/ex
Originally released on Tara in 1985, and I thought Tara always kept everything
in print, so why did Mother Records issue this LP in 1989? Colour me confused.

Click the photo to see a scan of what the cover really likes.
Operating Theatre - Early Days 2xCD (DEAF, IRL 2006) w/DEAF 2006 program
Fantastic double-CD set which collects most of this seminal Irish
electronic outfits material from 1981-88, and adds a more recent
recording from 1999. A must for Roger Doyle fans, espcially for
the inclusion of the rare CBS singles and some previously
unreleased material. Housed in the DEAF 2006 program (DEAF stands
for Dublin Electronic Arts Festival), which includes an article on
the bands history.

Stano - Daphne Will Be Born Again LP (Dossier ST 7534, Germany 1987) ex/ex
Irish experimental/electronics artist, less radical LP (or academic) than
Roger Doyle LP (or Nigel Rolf). And this is his most accessible effort, I think;
a far cry from The Threat!
Stars of Heaven - Clothes Of Pride/All About You 7" (Hotwire HWS 853, IRL 1985) (xerox PS) ex/ex
Excellent and extremely hard to find debut single with two tracks unavailable elsewhere.

Third and final album, this was released in the UK and Germany but the
commercial breakthrough never happened. Think Leo Sayer. Another promo.

(Thin Lizzy) Funky Junction - A Tribute To Deep Purple LP (Gold Stereo Award MER 373, UK 1973) EX/EX €30
Deep Purple covers "tribute" album recorded by Thin Lizzy (Lynott-Downey-Bell lineup)
for a 'dodgy German businessman'. Note that vocals are not by Lynott, they're by
Bernie White, singer with an unrecorded Dublin band called Elmer Fudd. To avoid
disappointment, I should point out that some tracks are pretty bad(!), but there's
good stuff too and this is an essential purchase for early Lizzy fans IMO.

Village Green - Our Generation LP (Triskel TRL 1004, IRL 1978) vg+/ex
There aren't that many Irish celtic rock LPs from the 70s. There are lots
of singles which would make a great comp but not that many LPs -- well this
is half of one. Just over half the tracks are comparable to Horslips, Spud,
Keltic Wine, Mushroom, the Rascals, mid-70s Skid Row even; the rest is folk
rock, nice enough but nothing special. A tough one to find. Triskell was
a Dolphin and like all late 70s records on this label, the cover is wafer
thin and has suffered soem edgewear and creasing as a result: no tears or
rips, no seam splits, no writing, just a little but aged. Recommended to
Horslips fans -- there's even a perfect Horslips copycat track.

Four years and several line-up and manager changes later, the second
